In its originial shape it was not very definite, and since it has been modified, on the sug- gestion of my coffgague, it isless so. It now proposes, that so--much of the surplus revenue, and the dividends of stock receiv- able from the Bank of the United States, as may be necessary for the purpose, ought to be set apart and applied to the general de- fence and pertmanent security of the coun- try?

The debt contracted during the revoln- tionary war, during the !ast war, and all ether debts which the United Siates bad contracted, bave been paid off; therefore, if the permanent defence and geueral security of the country require it, for one | will feel | itty daty to add io our annual appropria- tions such sums as may be necessary to complete, more rapidly our fortitications, Which have been co:nmenced; to repair those which need repairs, and tu build new ones at such important points on our coast as the public mierest ay Tequire; to pro— cure ordinance to arm them when builtjand if necessary, ada something to our military peace establisiiment, so that we may have troops to take cure of those fortifications, & artis, after they shall have been built and provided.

If he resisted afl importunities, and did not use the money, and war did come, he would be censured for not providing for the defen- ces of the country. Again: supppose the money to be drawn, whit was to be done with t2. How much to the Ariny, to the Nuvy, to fortifications and to ordnance? ‘I'he section does not say; all is indefinite, vague, luose, and left to Executive disereuon. ‘These reasous were satisfactory to my own mind; I voted upon them. From the time the tiree millions was first mentioned in the Seuate until we adjourned, | did not. con- verse, as | believe, with a single member of the tlouse upon this. or any other sub- Jeet. nor did | converse with any member of the Scaute except my colleague, who Jelued tae in the lobby vebind the colon- sade after our last vote. He was kind en- vugh to speak favorably of my bumble ef- ‘fort, and to express his regret that | had not inade iny argument beture the first vote; but either he nor any other member of either House ever intimated that the President wished such ao appropriation, I sincerely believed he did not; but in thatat seems | was mistaken, and the first notice Thad of my mistake was in his an- swer to a company of geatdemen in New York, wiio, aficr the tise ol Congress,inade fio a tender of their services to defend the country.

My belief was the President , did not wish 4. 1 supposed it bad been | Mr. President, J did not the purpose of expressing m these resolutions. The hoo who moved them made the ocaasion of stating that our rise solely for Y ©ptoion upon orable Senator ir discussion the country was at «flered by some member opposed to the adwinistration, who wished a free disburse- | ment of me@ney about our seaport towns,aot caring oy ms ment was occa- sioned by ' that, in thgburry 4 -* 2 2: . ¥ 4 at Oth + @nec tt in my pres ) it oat coligugues of th House, | probably as aiteutive as any @ assures we he did not hear any tice dani, when the amendmed consideration, he had a curlos§ty to know whether the President desired the appro- priation or not; that he couversed with a colleague sitting near him, and, neither 0 them knowing, he asked another of his | colleagues, thea chairman of the Commit. | tee of Ways and‘Means, who told him the President did wish it, & added thathe must } } ‘say nothing ubout it. He did say nothing | about it ull since this discussion com- menced during the present session. With the motives fur this request to conceal | am not acquainted, therefore can say nothing. The other source of information (the tion, and ae . loo spp a night Globe) I did not apply to; I never read it tion of $869,000 contained ia ~ | information, i hed ith a message. that | /a mouon was made th heard wished to ‘RO | Was here, m here | mack ns fend ac ‘the Globe” If Dh | to guide my-j look into arent ts the last place upon into for the truth. ¢ Again: If 1 had seen this t to learn T of this a notice, t that the President has an House to act as his su ; and to give that information to the which we have a right, *0 receive from the C self, _Lasily. If } had seen that nouce, | would not have supposed this section was intended by it. The notice was specific “one million for Fortifications, “and twe millions for the Navy. The- amendment is for every thing relating to either sea or land, ing general mass, for the Executive to divide out, as well as he could, aecord- ing to his discretion. If the amendment had pursued the notice, it would have been well expressed ; but in the shape presented in the bill, I doubt whether the combined talents of the mem- bers of both Houses can frame a section on such subjects, more loose, more general, aud more indefinite than it is. It has been insisted hy the Senator fron New Ilaimpshire that this section did make a Specific appropriation of this three mil- lions of dollars, and was justified by prece- dents in the days of General Was ington, President Jefferson, and of President Mad- ison. By the term specific appropriation, I un- derstand that we meau the direction of the law to apply a given sum of money to the accomplishinent ofa particular object, in ex- clusion of all others. If this idea be correct, this section has no claims whatever to the appellation of specific. The object of it was to place every thing at the discretion of the Execu- live. ~ Ist. Whether the money should be used at all. 2d. If used, to apply it to any object he pleased, connected with the Jané or naval service, or defenee. The precedents referred to do not bear out the arguments. ‘The first is an 3 ppro- priation of $116,000 to pay the civil list. Here the sum must all be applied to, the discharge of the civil list, and nothing else. The next is $70,500 for fortifications. Although it is not said what sum should be applied to this or that fortification, yet the whole must be applied to fortifications, and to no other object. The third and last pre- cedent rests on the same principles. In the case now under consideration, ey- ery thing is vague, indefinite, and left to Executive discretion. and all this “without any communication from the President, or any estimate whatever. I venture another remark, founded on what I heard said by a gentleman of much experience, not now among us, that during the period, of a ular administration was the very time we must expect bad precedents to be sel. These precedents, incautiously set, when we have unbounded confidence in the Ex- eculive, are sure to be relied on, in after- | times, by those who may wish to use power without regard to the public wel- | fare. This section, if adopted, would in after- ;imes have furnished a precedent, by j which anv grant of the public money | might be made, to be used at Execulive | discretion. I now put it to gentlemen with whom, on former occasions, I had generally acted, to say, whether, if such a grant had been | Proposed during the late Administration, a /single man of thom would have voted for )1t?

Upon this matter, for one, ) ly satisfied that I, I am perfect- and those who voted | with me, were right in not agreeing to | this amendment: but the matter did not 'end with the vote of tlre Senate; the bill | did not necessurily fall thereby. Let us | pursue the subject, and see when, how, and | Where the bill was finally lost. | The Senate returned the bill to the House, accompanied by a message, inform- ing them that the Senate adhered to their disagreement to the amendment as to these three millions. Upon receiving this mes- sage, it was competent to the House to have receded from their amendment, and then the bili would have passed appropriating the $569.000 proposed by the Senate ; bat, instead of that, they took a vote, and de- termined they would not recede. (House Journal, page 518.) After this (page 519) at the House do ask a conference on the disagreeing votes. This motion was agreed to, aad a commit- tee of three appointed, and 3 message sent to the Senate, asking it to appoint a com- mitice to confer-on the sudject. (This - message is found in the Senate Journal, age 236.) As soon as it was received the Senate agreed to the conference, and appuinted a committee on their part, (page 237.) In the course of a short time, the committee on the part of the Senate return- ed, and reported that the conferees had a- greed to recommend to their Peepective Houses, as a substitute for the $2,000,000, an appropriation of three hundred thousand dollars for arming the fortifications, and an additional appropriation of five leundred thousand dollars for the repair and equip- ment of ships of war. (Senate Journal, Ps ) each House had agreed to this report then there would have been the appropria- the bill es € 237. It ——d bent from the Senate, and an addition of $390,000, making, in all, instead of $439,- yoo, which the Executive had asked, @1,- 669,000. Here the question recurs, whose fault is it that this was not done? Unques- tionably rant that of the Senate. Its con- ferees had acted promptly, and promptly made their report. The Senate coulc go no further ; it could take no vote, as the bill and other papers had been carried to the House by the conferees on the part of the House. This was entirely wrong. When the conference ended, it was the du- ty of the conferees on the part of the Senate, who would have presented them when they made their report; the Senate could then have sanctioned the report by a vote which I have no doubt would have been unanimous, immediately sent the bill to the House, which could have given its sanction, and the bill become a law. = In- stead of this, the Hovse conferees kept the bill and papers, and, by so doing, defeated the whote bill. ‘The rule upon this subject is so perfect- ly plain it canrot be mistaken, — Jt is this: in all eases where a conference 1s asked be- fore a vote of disagreement, the conferees of the House asking the conference, when it is over, must take the papers back with | them, because their House ts entitled to the next vote; but.in every case where a conference is asked afler a vole of disagree- nent, then, when the conference is over, the conferees of the House asking the con- ference mustueliver over the bil and pa- pers to the conferees of the other Efouse, because that vther House is entitled to the next vote. {n this case the Senate had voted to ad- here to their disagreement to the amend- ment. ‘The House had, after this, voted that they woulu not recede, and then pro- posed the conference: therefore, as the House sd given the last vote, the Senate was entitled to the next; and to enable them to give it, it was the duty of the con- ferees of the House to have given the pa- pers to the conferees of the Senate, and, if they would not receive them they might) have been left in the committee room. j This duetrine, 80 reasonable in itvelf. is laid down tn Jefferson’s Manual at 187, utle conter- ence, iu language too plain to be misunderstood, and it has been practised on by Congress in the cases with which | am acquainted. (See the case of the bill for the relief of Mr Menroe,in Sen ate Juurnal, page 374, of the session 1825 and 1626; and House Journal! of the same gpssiun; | r Vv d h s n d d pages 616 and 628 ) set it not he supposed that the conferees cf the two Houses were equally to blame fur permit. ting the papers to remain with the cuoferees nut entitled to them after the conference ended, be- cause the conferees of the Senate did mot know, & had no means of knowing, that the Flouse had vuted not to recede after the Senate had voled to adhere. Strange as the fact may seem, the truth is, that the House, in its message tu the | Senate proposing the conference, omilted to state the fact, that a vote not to recede had deen taken after the House last received the bill. (See the ‘message, Senate Joarnal, page 236 ) The co iferees on the part of the tlouse knew the fact, because thetr Journal shows they were present aad voted. (See the House Journal pages 318,519 ) The conferees of the House, having improper- y taken the dilland papers, and thereby put it | 14 of the power of the Senate to take any step | xhatever, are answerable for all the c sequen cM 1 do nut state this omission in the message by way uf censure vn the Clerk tur any intentivoal arong. All these matters relative to this bill -vok place in the night, in the confusion which ccurfed at the end of the sessiun; and it is very seldom that the most temperate and prudent are as well qualified w do business ur have their #its as well about them, after a cuinfortavle din- ner, as they havein the early part of the day. Mr President, lei us now see what the con farees uf the Huuse did with these prpers after taking thew fromthe conterence ruun. ‘They retorned to the House, and the chairman made no report whatever; the Senate waited from one totwo hours, and, being able tu hear nothing, sent a message respectfally calling the attention of the House to this suhject (See the House Journal, page 530.) ‘Then the chairman stated that the conmittee had returned at the time a vote ‘vas taken on a resolution providing for the payment of Mr. Letcher, by which it was ascer- tained there was not a quorum, and that the con- stitutional term had expired, and that for these reasons he had declined making a report. Mr, Lewis, another member of the committee, then took the papers and made the report, which was never acted on, and thus the matter ended. ‘he first reasun assigned for not having made the repurt was the want of a quorum: this, it is said, was ascertained by the vote on the resulu- tion just mentioned. The chairman osght to have put the House in possession of the report, as he found the Housein session. Had he done go, no doubt it would have been ceted on. ‘Ihe Jonrnal shows that much business was done afterwards, and a resolution reported by Mr, Wm. Cost Johnson was adopted by the House. (See House Journal, from page 524 to 530.) Now, if there wag a quorum to co other busi. ness, to adopt other regulutions, how is it that there was out a quorum to receive and act on this report? ‘The remaining reason assigned is, that the constitutional term for which the members were elected had expired. In other words, it was af- ter 12 o’clock the night of the 34 of March. How can this be? There must have been gore mistake on this point. If it was net wo late to du the other business [ have mentioned, how did it happen to be too late to make this report? Again: the most certain infurmation we have _ as tome is derived from the statement of the honorable Senator from Virginia. He tells ns he Jooked at his watch when the conferees left the Senate chamber, and it then wanted fifteen mir- utes of eleven. When they returned and made sheiz report, he was not in, but returned shortly afterwards, and it was then twenty minates after We mey therefore, suppose the confer- + had returued about one quarter after eleven, sees of an hour to have dis. before the hour of twelve o'clock AV.

Skilfal and experienced engineers are wanting ; naval architects, superintendents, master-workmen, mechanics, and laborers are all wanting, and cannot be procured for some years to come, to apply advantageous- | | ly a much larger expenditure than that which we usually make for these objects. For the purpose of setting this matter in its true light before the Senate, and the Pub- tic, I propose to offer, by way of an amend- ment, an additional resolution of inquiry to this effect: ‘Also that the President be requested to inform the Senate whatsums can be ad- vantageously expended on each of those several objects within the current year, and thereafter annually on each of those several objects,taking into view the practicability of procuring skilful anc experienced engin- eers, naval architects, superintendents, and master-workmen, and also mechanics and laborers ; taking into view, also, our means of procuring and preparing materials fit to be used in works of a substantial and dura- ble character : alsu, that he be requested to inform the Senate what are the causes which have prevented and delayed the ex- penditure .of former appropriations for those several objects-”’ _- ‘Fa shie,£ presume, there willbe no ob- pecuony, [kis information very necessary to enable us to act with knowledge on the subject.” When we have an answer to this, | and the several calls containee inthe other | resolutions, we can form an opinion aot only of what is necessary, but what can be | used ; and we may avoid, what every Sen- | ator would doubtless wish to avoid, the’ placing of a very large sum of money in’ fit of the country, but which they might misapply.

[ aim not about two express any opinion on that principle; but. if it be true, ail must agree that the Chief Magistrate should se the ulinust cautiun and circumspection to the ificial ianguage of such ducuments. All must lsu admit the rule of reci rocity; and ¢unse quently, that; although the ne of France, ip addressing the (haibers, or the King of Great Britain in addressing Parliament, should charge the United States with bad faith, aod the vivla- tton of sulemna pledges, & should, peoding peace- ful aud earnest endeavors to setile a controversy, tnreateg an appeal to force, the U.S, would be byund to subanit to the insult and dignity, Without complaint, without remunstrance, with- oul the poor satisfaction of even asking an expla- vation, But let us test the theory and the practice un- der this principle during the present adwinisira- tion. Great praise would be dus, it 1t be merited, fur guarding our dumestic concerns against al} foreign interference or intermeddling. But what course was pursued on the mem. rable colonial question? A late Secretary of State, in giving instructions to the Minister of the United States at the Court of Great Britain, authorized him to say the Government of the United States—that is to say, a preceding administration —had insts- ted tou long upon a particular pretension, and that it had been condemned by the People of the U. States. ‘Ihe atientiun of Great Britain was cha!'lenged to the parts which,on that question, bad been acted by the new Administration; thai is, lu the parts respectively taken by the Secre- lary of State, by the Secretary of War, by the Secretary of the ‘Treasury, by the Secretary o1 the Navy, and by the Minister himself, in the Congress of the United States. Conld there have been a-inore distinct or dangervus invitation to a foreign Power in respect to our internal con cerns? or a mure intelligible hint ta grant con- cessions founded upon previous friendly services? And what was this pretension, in regard to which the prior Administration had displayed tov much pertinactiy? It was nvthing more or less than the humble privilege of carryrng our vwn products in uur own vessels tu British colu nial ports un the same conditions as similar pro ducts wight oe brought there fro any other place in any other vessels—a privilege asserted by the act of the 3d of March, 1323, fur which, I believe, the Secretary had himself voted. But let us test the principle alluded to by what has transpired in our negotiations and correspon dence with France alone. [t was vivlated in 1830, when Mr. Rives made an explanation to Prince Poxianac of a message of the Pres- ident ~to Congress which bad given of- fence to France; and when the then Secretary of State (although the Prince had been previous. ly satisfied) pressed upon Mr. Rives a further and an elaburate apulogy for the offensive lan- uage of the message. [t was vivlated by Mr. ivingston, when, in January of last year, he undertook, without instructinns, to explain the message of December, 1834: and surely it can not be contended that the case of an unauthorized explanation, which is subsequently approved, ts less strong than when the authority precedes the explanation. Ia the former instance the danger ous precedent is setof a muinister’s assuming to act without instructions. [t was violated in Jone last, when the Secretary of State, with the previous authority uf the Presidemt, in a compli. mentary letter to Mr. Livingston, approved a seound time of the explanation which he had giv- er to France. It was again vivlated in the wes- sage of December last, when the Presiden’, al most in tne very language, certainly embracing every idea, made the explanations required by the Due de Broglie in his despatch to M.Pageot. It is nanifest that, although the copy of that de-- paich was twice refosed, and ajihough Mr. For syth, three days after it was first read by bin, transuttted to Mr. Barton his final instructions, witbunat saying one word about it, that the expla- natory language of the message was made to cun- fourm exact:y tv the requirements of the despatch. ‘The message was prepared to obtain with France the merit of a satisfactury explanation and with the People of the United States the merit of re fusing, upon high national ground, all explana- tion. The President protested that he never would apulogize, and made an apology! that he never would explain, and made a satisfactory ex- planation! [ rejoice that France, much as I think she has occasionally erred, had the wis- dom to nise and receive it as such.

An Idea.—In a debate which took place the o. ther day, in the House uf Representatives, Mr. Hardin, of Kentucky, said in reply to “Yr, Cushig of Massachusetts, that the pecple in Mr. C’s region * could see a dollar farther with the naked eye than uther people could thruugh a telescupe.’ The late Racing at Charleston, was very in- teresting, from the celebrity of several of the hor- ses enfered.

Uulike the celebrated Talley- fand, that ran up to the booths, he took in between the booths and the Citizens’ Stand. He wus brought out by his excellent rider, 48 S000 as he could hauPhim up, and weuld have still made an effort to gio a position in the race, if he could have gotin sight of the field ahead. In the third mile, the n- der of Lady Morgan was compelled to yield the first heat to Hickory, the saddle having, iu the first mile, rua upon the whithers of the mare, in which Position he rode the heat. Clodhopper kept Hickury at work over all the ground, but was second in the race, Hickory being first, and Lady Mor- gan last; Saladin being without place. ‘Kime of first heat, 5m. 528. After the usual rubbing was over, the nags were again mounted and brought to the post. ‘This heat became very interest- ing, as it was evident that the question of bottom would decide the race. At the start, Hickory went ahead,and. so continued for the firet mile, and was passed bv Lady Morgan, at the commencement of the sec- ond mile, but re-passed her ladyship at the mile and a_ half stretch, was re-passed by the mare the third mile, where lie had been passed the second mile, and was never a- ble to lock again, losing the third mile and heat. /. Time of second heat 5m. 52s. For the third heat, Lady Morgan and Hickory only were in the race ‘There was now no doubt what would be the re- sult. Hickory did nat shew game. He} had won the first heat under a pall, and un- der the whip he could not beat the second This heat afforded but little amusement, Lady Morgan ran ahead at pleasure. The best eflurts of Hickery were unavail- ing. Time of third heat, 6m. 6s. ‘The course was fashionably and well a- tended this day, considering the strong ap- pearances ofrain. All those that witnes- sed the eflogts of Lady Morgan, on Wed. nesday last, against Lady Nasbkville, in which race Hickory proved Lady Morgan’s Marplot, were well satisfied that her lady- ship was the winner of the very handsome purse given on this day. — During.the races of the past week and yesterday, no accidents or casualties have occurred to mar the amusementa of the turf—all seemed gay, animated, and pleas- ed with the fine exhibitions of speed and bottom of some of the racers. We hope to see aur visiting strangers from abroad with us again the next season, to whom it gives the Jockey Club so much pleasure to ex- tend its hospitalities. There is no associ- ation with which we are acquainted, more deserving of the patronage of the communi- ty, from their enterprising efforts to carry into effect the improvement of the blood of our horses, nor have we any knowledge of more moral and intellectual worth in the saine number of any other association of our citizens, me The Virginia Annual Cunference of the Meth- odist Episcopal Church, clused its session on Munday 22d February. ‘The fullowing are the appuinineats fur thie District : SALISBURY DISTRICT, .2.

It is with the deepest conviction and hearttelt pain that Tsay, as | must say, thatthe pro ceedings of tie General Assembly of Vir- ginia., ou the present occasion, are ealeuta- ted, above all things to impair the right of instruction itself, I should have a right, too, after having acted in conformity with instructions giv- en to the General Assembly at une session, and seeing the same opinions prevail ata succeeding session, to appeal from the mandate of the present Assembly, to the People, at the next elections. And this pecule seem the more reasonable, if it | should be considered, that some of the | State Legislatures have,at their sessions of | 1834—’5, instructed their Senators to vote for expunging the resolution of the Senate in question ; and, though their instructions have been disregarded, have, at their last sessions, declined to repeat and enfored them. Butl choose to place myself, at once, upon different and higher ground, and to act up to the principles, reasons, and niotives, which, in reality, dictate the con- duct I am going to pursue. [t canuot escape ubservation,that, while the General Assembly instructs me to ex- punge the resolutions of ihe Senate, whieh 1 vuied for in confurmity with the insteue- tions of the Assembly of 1833—'4, the present Assembly has not erpunged ibe resolutions of the former Assembly. And though (if Lam rightly informed) a propesi- tiou has been made to resciad the former resolutions, even tbat proposition has not yet been acted on. So that I am to under- siand that the General Assembly is instruct. ing me to du, iu respect to a former res- olution of the Senate that which itwill not do, itscifin respect to resulutions pas sed ata furmer session of its own body. 1 mast bespesk pardon for remarking, iurtuer. that, though proceedings have been had in Congress, and some laws have been passed, wolatiag, in the Opinion of the Gen- eral Assemiily, the dearest righis of the People—iake, for example, the sedition law: and though, too, many laws have “ueen passed by the Federal Leyislature, which, in the opinion of the General As- sembly, transcended its constitutional pow- ers, and eucruached on the rights of the Siaies 5 yet it has never, leretofore, occur. red to the General Assembly in any case, veal any time, to assert and vindicate the rights of the People. or the rizhts of the States, against such assumptions of power by Congress, by an expunction (literal or typical) of the obnoxivus proceedings from the journals of the two Houses. And now, for the first time, when a simple resolu. tion of the Senate is supposed ( by unaccountahle misconception of its sinport and intentior) to encroach upon the rehts of the national branch of the Cederul Legislature,which probably has not p.rceived aud certainly has net complain- ed of the encroachment—or (to speak plainly) when the Senate has presumed to Gquesdon the rights and powers claimed lor che Executive Departinent by the Pri si- dent, who alone has complained and pro- tested against is proceedings—I see the General Asseub!ly of Virginia coming furs ward to vindicate the rglits and powers claimed by the President, by this proc of expunction, which it has never thought of resorung to, for the vindication either of the rights of the People, or the rights of the Stu/cs. I mention these strange con- trasts, because they have raised the gloom- jest apprehensions, in my mind, of ap- proaching danger to our republican insti- lutions, and because those apprehensions ° have had an importint influence in deter- mining my judgment and my conduct, un- der the extraordinary insiractions which the General Assembly has thought proper to give me. The Geueral Assembly ean have na rea. son to doubt, and I am quite sure, does 10: doubt, that I voted for the resolutiva vi tea nilation ie , oa eu g e n e de m “s y ™ Pe r i t ts a a on Senate which it condemsas wrrcotistitution- al and mischievoug, onder a sincere convic- tion that rt was constitutional, wise, and even necessary to assert and vindicate the authority of the laws; neither can it doubt that this is still my opinion; yet, without designing to suggest any reasuns to enlight- en and convince my understanding, the General Assembly gives me a peremptory instruction to pro and vote for the ex- punetron of this resolution from the jourwal of the Senate; and it insists that b nyust 0- bey its will and comnand—or resign my ofice. Tt instructs me to vote to expunge | from the journal that which it knows, as welt as ! do, is there truly recorded; It in- structs ine to deface, and in a manner, to falsify, a public record, which itknows the Constitution explicitly requires the Senate to keep; and (te remove my scruples) it | prescribes the expunction of the resolution | from the journal, hguratively and typically, in such a manner as can only serve to elude the positive injuaction of the Constitution, and to signalize the humiliation and dis- grace of the Senate, without at ail affecting the historical evidence of the fact: it 1- structs me to do this—or resign. It ane structs me so to expunge, as nollo expunge, the resolution: it requires of ine, in a word, a jesuitical eqnivocation with my oath and conscience, and (considering the knowl- edge it must have of the opinions | enter- | tain) it commands me to incur dishonor, | shame, and guilt—or resign. It requires | me, in effect, to give my recorded sanction | to the perog itives claimed by the President, | in his memorable protest against the pro- | ceedings of the Senate, and to the ates tions he thinks proper to set upon the rights, | powers, aud privileges of this body: well | knowing the opimions | bave avowed the questions of constitutional right, and, | hope, not doubting On | stitution ; and deeply convinced as fam, that my ee would wore vitatly affect the integs- y the Constitution, than even an implicit obe- | dience to the instrectiun, | have, therefore, come wo a resulution, that I cannot, ought net, and: will not resign. : I pray the General Assearbly tn accompany me for a brief space, and to accompany me with pa- tience, ina consideration of the practical conse- quences of the » and of the doctrine, ( for preevdent will soun geow into dectrine ) which it proposes to establish ; namely, -hat the State Legislatures may give instructions to their | Seuaturs in Congress, which they believe they ‘ cantot obey without conscious dishouor and erime, and therefore will not ubey, in order te force them to the alternative of resignation. ‘The unavoidable effect will be, to change the tenure of the Senatorial office from a term of six years, which the Constitution has ordained, toa tenure during the pleasue of the respective State Legislatures that elect them ; to make the Sen- ate, which was plainly designed, and that for the must ubvivus purposes, tv be the mest perma- nent budy inthe Government, tn effect and in practice, the iost fluctuating, trausieut, aod un- stable. ‘Tue Senate, constracted on the federative prin- ciple, lo represent the sovereignties uf the States, ‘which from the nature of sovereignty, are Co-e- qual, issu essvaual to ther existeace and preser- vatlon, iaacit the Senate were abolished from tie systeui—ths viher branches uf itre Govern- neat, bola ol which are nauoual in their charac- ter, remaining in tall furee—tt is hard to imagine how the State Governments, or any thing more than the furins of them coald lung endure. And whatever tends tu diminish the weight of the Senate in the system, mast tead to impair, in exactly the saine ptupurtiun, the State severeign- ties theinselves, and tua general consolidation of them all ioto one empire. The tederative Sen- ate, represcniing the States, was designed as the balance uf the system—as a clieck tu the popular branch of the Legislature, and un the Executive, beth of whieh are alinost entirely national in their Constitution —and, in mattes of iinportant and permanent ‘nterest, itis a check that can very rarely operate fur a longer time than may ' suffice to mature the judgment of the People their sincerity, the Gen- | on suber dispassionate refluction. The Senate eral Assembly commands me to inflict this | ‘ (in my sense of things) vital blow upon | nent will, the deliberate settled judginent of the the Constitution of my country — or resign. | nation, ‘ue House of Representatives, eleeted ] cannot shut my eyes against the rath fur two years, representing the People :minedi- cannot, if it would, counieract the perma- plain and ylaring upon the very face of the transaction—that such instructions were . . \ not given me, with any expectation, or view, or perhaps even wish, that Ishould yield o- bedience to them. choice between the alternatives proposed to me; and ! believe, most undoubtingly, that it was not designed to leave me any choice, that the real and the only purpose of the instructions was to compel me to resign— ‘to instruct me outof my seat.’ ludeed, it seems to me that this design is almost a- yowed in the preamble and resolutions you have transmitted to me. For the preamble recites, as a motive for the proceeding, that ‘the Assembly deem it their solemn duty a- gain to reassert the duty of the representa- tive to obey or resign,’ and then,after giving me an instruction which the Assembly knew that J could not obey without crime and foul disgrace, it resulvea—‘that it is the du- ‘ty of the representative to obey the instrac- ‘ions of his constituent, orto resign the ‘trust with which they have clothed him, ‘in order that it may be transferred into the shands of those who will carry into execu- ‘the wishes and instructions of the constitu- ent body.’ It was impossible that | should have re- mained ignorant of, ane itis equally im- possible for me to forget. the political oper- ations in Virginia during the past year. | know that the design of ‘instructing me out of my seat,’—or (in courtly phrase) ‘giving me a walking ticket,’ was early «nd openly avowed and recommended; that 1t was an advantage not alittle vaunted, which the victors promised themselves from the success they achieved at the last annua! elections; that the scheme of the instruction was pro- posed and discussed,and the very method of typical expunction whichthe General As- sembly has adopted strenuously recommen- ded,as the proper and sure means of driving me toa resignation, inthe public prints, which are sometimes the organs, and some- times the dictators, of party plans. Iknow, moreover, that the proceeding was aimed at me—particularly at me; end that, to insure its success, no effort has been spared to ex- aggerate my faults, such as they are; to fal- sify the history of my life, simple and ob- scure as hitherto it had been, and barren of incident; to misrepresent all my motives, sentiments, and actions; and to raise such a storm of public indignation against me as should make tne bend like the willow inthe fable, and preserve a worthless existence by yielding, rather than betorn up by the roots like the sturdy oak, and Jaid forever pros- trateon the earth. J shall fulfil my destiny with firmness and composure. Let me thank my enemies for having given mea consequence which my owa merits would never have achieved, that enables tne to act 8 conspicuons and useful part in the defence of the ‘free institutions’ of my country. 1 ought to be grateful to the General Assem- bly for placing me, as it were, atthe head of a forlorn hope in the contest now waging for the preservation of the Constitution and the laws, and though | am as sensible of the danger, as | am of the honor, of the post assigned me, ! hope, w:th the blessing of God, to approve myself not altogether un- worty of it. Ifthe General Assembly had any object at heart pursued directly for its own value, and notas a means of accoioplishing, by indirection, other ub- jects, plainly unjust and unconstitutiunal,—and should give me an instructiun to use my endea- vors, in my official station, to promote its views | —an inetruction, which it believed I could con- scientiousty obey—an instruction framed with no design to force me toa resignation; and if, in such a case, I should think the end aimed at un- eorstitational, aad should be, therefore unwilling to be an active agent in accomplishing it ; the case would be a very strong one indeed, and attenved with very peculiar eircumstances, in which i would retain my seat, and stand as an obstruetion to the accomplishment of the measare desired. — Bat regarding the present instruction as mainly directed to the purpose of foreing me ‘to resign the trust with which’ the General Asse.nbly ‘has clothed me, in order that it may be transfered in- to the bands of those who will carry into execu- tion the wishes and iostruetions of the constitu ent body’—~which wishes and instructions | think plainly contrary to the letter and spirit of the Con- There is, in truth, no | lately, and therefure more exactly representing | their opiniuas and wishes for the time being, and | mure apt alsu to represent their passions, 18 10 that way endued with a power and influence, which the shortness of its term of office hardly suffices ty cvuntervail. ‘lhe President, elecied for four years, clothed with all the powers neces- ‘sary for the Exxeeutive of a Government charged with the foreiga relativus ofthe nation, with his vel on the acts of the Legislature, and the whole patronage of Governinent in his hasds, 1s far more than the equal in power of either ranch of the Legislature, and in the opinion of many, ‘inore powerful than both combined. His very ‘unity is @ principle of strength. ‘Phe only means of makiog the Senate co-ordinate with the uther | departments, was that which has been resurted tu; namely, to make it more permanent : and henee it was that the Senatorial teria of office was made three times as long as that of the | Representatives, and half as long again as that of the President. If the Senatortal term of office | be reduced, the power of tts check on the nation- a branches of the Guvernment will be propor- tiunally impaired ; it it be made to depend on the pleasure of the Siate Legislatures,the check will be alinust annihilated ;and the State sovereignties must share its fate, and be impaired or annihila- ted with it. ‘Lu ine therefore, tt seeing tiat the State Governments, would commit an imprudent actit they should consent to shorten the terin of the Senatorial office; anda sulsidal one if they they shuuld establish the principle,in theory or in practice,that their Senators shall hold their offices valy during pleasure. But whether these views are wise or not, all will agree tha: the tenure of the Senatorial vilice, being for a term uf six years fixed by the Cuusti- tution, is not now, and was not then designed to be, dependeut on the pleasure of the State Legis- latures, and can be nowise authoritatively made go, bat by an amendment of the Constitution of the United States, perfected according to the pro- visions of the 5th article; and that such an a- mendment would work a vital change in the Constitution of the Federal Government, and in the relations between that and the State Govern. ments. Ifthe doctrine which the General As- sembly now asserts, and which it calls upon me to give my aid to establish, by setting the exam- ple of conforming with it, shall b-come general- ly prevalent in the other States of the Union as well as in Virginia, then will that vital chsnge be wrought in our institutions as effectually as it could be by an amendinent of the Constitution ; and this by means the most itrecular and the most contrary that can well be conceived, to the cautious spirit of the provision for futures amend: ments, The doctrine is, that a Senator in Congress is bound to yield implicit obedience to any instruc. tion which the State Legislature that elected him may give him, cr resign—no matter how plainly unconstitutional, no matter how base and criminal, the act which he is enjoined to perform may be, in his own judgment—that he has no right to exercise hisuwn judgment at all, or to cunsuit his own conscience ; he is not in this ease a moral ayent; he has no alternative but to obey ur resign. It this doctrine shall become generally adopted and established throughout ihe United States, y the assertion and exercise of it on the one part, and submission to it on the other, [ pray the Gener- al Assembly to consider, fur a moment, the proba- ble workings of the principle in practice When- ever the President shall feel the check ot Sena- torial opposition—if the Senators in opposition shall have the firmness to continue refractory to his will, unmoved Sunawed by his power—espe- eially, if there shall be nearly a balance of par- ties in the body, so that a few changes may re- verse the majority—the President will pe placed under the strongest teinptations to have recourse to the State Legislatures,in order to disembarrass himself of the oppusition. Suitable, nay, even plausible, pretexts will never be wanting, to jus- tify or excuse their interference. ‘There will be no difficulty, at any time, much more in times of violent party excitement, to select some prom- inent measure, involving a question of cunstitu- | | tiunal right, aod to fraiwe an instruction upon it to the refractory Senator, which it is known he ean not coascientivaely obey, and therefore will not obey, and to require him, nevertheless, toobey or resign. And to obtain the instruction we may surely expect to see all the mighty influence of Presidential power and patronage brought to bear upon the State Legislatures, and upun the elections tothem—todelude and demuralize the People—to tamper with, corrupt and seduce, ihe State Assemblies, whose Senators in Congress jit may be deemed most important, or most feas:ble to Femuve. Fit instrunents and agents fur the work will always abound, and volunteer in the service—the venal panders of power, the whole tribe of parasites and sycophants zealous to con- ciliate favor, the vain as>trants after political im- portance, honor, and noturter;—all will crowd | into the President’s train, aad yig with each other in duing his biddiogs. | am speaking of the prob- able, natural, inevitable effects ila i ut into actiun, do: net cen ner am. not insiouating, that the Geteral mbly intends to open the field for these ‘abominations. I speak with freedom, but not without singsre respect. It ie the firm conviction of my ind, that therenever was, and cannot be, a invented, better calculated than that which] am now called upon to take an active part in patab- lishing, to place the Federal Executive jnder the struagest temptation to employ its influence, power, and patronage, in the purchase vf stbser- vient Senators; and to pleee the State. Assenblies under temptation to provide the commudiy for market; w destroy. the purity of the Peupls, up- on which all depends at last; to destroy the puri: ty of the ‘State Assemblies, and ‘0 prostrate | dust. As to the Senate, that will sung be, all parpuses of useful service which it was in- tende1 to answer in the system Government, absolutely annihilated. And if this doctrine shall, in practice, judying from present appearances, probably w! to her aluoe: her people alune will be expused the process uf demoralization, the arts of corruption aud seduction: and her remembered to puint the tauatings of scurn at her ta!len condition.

I van only say, that if this peculiar duc- trine ever was asserted before, | do not know when, where or on what oecastun, IL was assert- \ ed. ft certainly is not asserted, nor was it in- tended to be asserted, in the preamble and res - Intions, adopted by the General Assembd'y in February, 1512, 00 the subject of the nght of in struction, ‘hat paper was the work ot my own hands, without assistance from any other person whatever, aud drawn up (as I but tou well re- member) with a haste, which, in my own apore- hensiun at the time, inatertally impatred its val- ue; yet, upon a recent and careful review of it, I du not find myself inelined fo retract, or to mo- dity, in any essential point, the propositions there asserted and maintained ; ad thereture, I aim willing, and even desirous, that my present opinions and conduct shall be tested by them. I was thena young statesman, but’ nut @ very yourg man ; and it had been fixed in my mind, by reflection and by the lessons wf history, as a rudiment in ethics and and in polities, that no proposition can be stated in either, however just and true, when properly understood and applied, that may not if abused, misapplied; or pushed to extremes, result in vice er folly. Sensible nat the right of instruction, and the correlative duty of obedience, might be abused tu the purpose of commanding violations of the Constitution, and evenacts of moral turpitaude—svo abused, under the influence of excitement and passion, to which the constituent body, as well as the rep- resentaiive, like all other men, might sometime- be subject—I took the ulmost pains to guard the ductrine against such abuses. [et us see how I accomplished the object. The very claiin which | understand the General Assembly now tu assert, to power in itself,and to obedience from me, absulute power on the one hand, and blind ubedience on the other, is stated as an objection lu the reasoning of the preamble, and answered as folluws : ‘** But ithas been said that a State Govern- ment may instruct its Senators to violate the Constitution of the United States—that a State, io actual insurrection against the General Government, may instruct its Senators to pro- mote the cause of rebellion : and it is asked, whether the Senator would be bound by such sworn to preserve, and to overthrow the Gov- | ernment he had sworn to defend 2? I{may be answered, in the first place, that the particular instruction, which forms the subject of present consideration, could by no possibility involve a breach of the Constitution of the Onited States [tmight, and in the opinion of this Assemoly, woulu have been unconstitutional to charter the Bank of the United States anew ; bué surely, it could not pussibly be deemed unconstitutional not vo charter it. As tothe rest, without deter- inining the point which has beer taken for grant- ed, that a State in open rebellion against the General Government would still be entitled to its represeatation in the Senate, which, to say the least, is extremely doubtful—it is admitted without difficulty, that if a State instruct its Senator to give u vote plainly unconstiiuliwnal, or tu raise the standard of rebellion, tie Senator ts not bound to obey such instructions. Every case, such as that supposed, must stand upon is own peculiar circumstances: it supposes all bounds of right transcended, all ‘egitimate rule prustrated: and the propriety of opposition must be determined by the nature of tne injustice, the extent of the mischief,and the prudence of restist- ance. Butit is nvargument against the exer- cise of a lawful power, thatit may be made the pretext fur the assumption of an unlawful power. ‘The nght of instruction, rightfnily exercised, with nu evil intention, to no pernicious objec’, cannot be affected by the admission that, if a State Government, or the Genera} Goyeroment, becuine corrupt and ambitious, sad usurp tyranni- cal power, it may of right and ought to be resist- dience thereto, no mawought hepeeforth to 2c- | cept the appointinent of a Senator of the United States from Virginia, ahodoth not. hold bimself bound to obey such insiragtiuns ;"—meanipg ob- viously, such legitpate instroetions a8. tlivse | feot mentioned in the sions resulting from the reasoning of the preant- ble, expressly declare that the iastructions which the State Legislatures have a tight to give their Senators in eeenicee: and which it is the boon: den duty of the ° as tion of the Constitution, or an act of moral turpi- tude.” ble, ‘« that ifa State instruct its Senator to give a.vute plainly uncunstitational,” ‘ the Senator is their dignity, authority and influence, iy the | not bound ww | ery case of the kind ‘ tnust stand on its own pe- | euliar cireuinstances —and that ‘ the propriety of the Federal , of uppositivn must be determined by the : of the injustice, the extent of the mischief, and be | the prudence of resistance.’ confined to Virginia, ag perhaps it may be, and | here proposed tu the Senator is 90 ll resignation, but obedience or resistance ; to be be, then these abominations will be confined | deterinined by the conside to | resistance to the authority uf Guverament must her Assembly to | ever be deterinined. ancient dignity and pristine glory will only be , a measure eatly with my sense of cuty, and very instruction to violate the Constitution he hud | ed. ‘I'he admission is cheerfully made. The General Assembly of Vi irginia is tneapable of : affirming the exploded doctrine of non-resist auce” And upon this reasuning in the pream- | bie, the two resolutions of a general nature, with which the paper conciudes, assert—“ That it is , the indubitable right of the Staie Legislatures to | instruct their Senators in Congress un all points, , either constitutional or politic, wheneves the | magnitude of the eccasiva shall require such in- terlerence, and that, by consequence, it is the bounden duty of the Senaters te ooey such tn- structions ; provided the tnsiruciions to be xiv en and obeyed require not the Senutor to co - mit a vicla:ion of the Constitution, gr an act of moral turpitude. ‘That. afier thug sulemn ex- , presaiou of the upinion of the General Assembly,» the ight of instructivn, and the duty of obe- previous resolution.

The following extract of a lotter receiv- ed by Cal Dell trom Captain Priest da- ted 4th instant, contains some further partic- ulars: ‘You may not have heard of the recent occurrences here. Gen. Gaines was attack- ed last Saturday Evening on this side of the Withlacoochie, and have been fighting ev- er since. Some times he has three fights inthe day and onein the night. At one of the iyghts there were found dead thirty Indians and one negro. The result of the others we have not heard. At the Jast ad- vices the loss to the army of 1200 inen,was 4 killed and $60 wounded. but we have beard the cannon several times since, firing very heavy. ‘Our Alachua companies left here about 1 o'clock this morning in a bard tain, in’ ar- der to assist in guarding provisions and am- munition to the Withlacoochie, both of which Gen. Gaines is much in want of. We understand that two days since, Gen Scott with his forces was at Picolata, and two diferent expresses have been sent fur him.’ By the Arrival of Mr. Samuel [Elarrison, from Alachua, on Tnesday evening last, we are furnished with still later wnforma- tion. Gen. Clinch with his forces, in conjunc- tion with the Alachua militia, making tn all about eight hundred, had gone to aid Gen. Gaines. He reached the camp Saturday last, and effected a junction with him.— Witb their united forces, amounting to nearly two thousand men, Gen. Gaines in— tended crossing the Withlacoochie, Monday last. Hus boats, floating bridges, &c, were all prepared. He has four twelve pounders, with which to cover his landing on the o- posite side of the Withlacoochie. The In- dians will undoubtedly make a desperate struggle to prevent his crossing. Mr. Har- rison says that on Monday, the cannon was | distinctly heard. It 1s all over now, and we are anxious to learn the result. He states that Gen. Gaiues has never shown to the enemy, more than about two hocdred men, at one time. That in every instance of an attack, whether by night or by day.he was prepared for them, having anticipated the movements of Oseola.! In this way, he made great havoc among the enemy, having killed several huadred of the:n. His !osa, before Gen. Clinch joined him, was only 8 killed and about 40 wounded.

Gaines succeed, ag he prob- ably has before this he will have conquered the Indians, and they must either surrender or betake themselves to the hammocks and swamps for the purpose of concealment & eluding the whites. By all his movements, Gen. Gaincs has evinced great skill, and-has shown that he perfectly understands the en- emy with whom he has to contend. The manner in which he cuts them off with so little loss to himself, shows that he has been no idle scholar in the art of war.

FLORIDA WAR. We publish in another column, the latest ac- counts from the seut of War; trom which, it will be perceived, that Gen. Clinch’s turce, in con- junction, with the Alachua militia, amounting to about 800, had reached Gen. Gaine’s camp— the united force is about 2,000, while the Indi- ans are estimated at between two and three thou- sand. We learn from the Washington papers, that owing toa misunderstanding, which tas unbap- pily existea fur many years, between Generaj Gaines and Gen. Scutt,in relatiun to the rela- tive rank of these gallant officers, Major Gen.

They act specifically upon the Liver, when in a torpid condition, carrying off a large quantity of bile, thruugh the influence off tbe excernent function, which, if suffered to remain in the system, would produce either Jaun- In all cases of torpor of the bowels, they act like acharm. In recent cases of Dyspepsia, they | are a certain cure. Many persons who were subject tu violent attacks of sick head-ache, have been much benefitied, and several perfectly cur- ed in a few weeks by theiruse. They are highly recommended as a preventive and cure of Bilious complainis. Persuns who are subject to that distressing complaint, s:a-sickness, by taking a portion or two of them a few days previous to embarking on board the vessel, will be almost certain wo escape it. Females can use them at all periods, without incurring any risk.

An argranent within a nul-shell.—We subjoin an article from one of the most res- pectable presses in the country, which states strongly, but with substantial truth, the merits of the poposition, which has come from Richmond, for laying violent hands upon the Journal of the Senate of the United States. Let any man ask himself, what would be the effect of success in the attempt to vioiate the journal as proposed? Must he not say, its only effect would be to give to the Presiuent of the United States a tri- umph over the Senatorial branch of the Government ? In a word, is the concerted action among leagued partizans in the Legislatures of Virginia and other States, to effect this ob- ject, any thing other than a war upon the Senate ; a scheme to prostrate the dignity, the honor, and the moral, too, of that body, io pleasure the passion, or the will of Gen- eral Jackson ’— Vat.

Several years ago, the Legislature of North Carvlina granted a charter for the | purpose of constructing such road, and at a | subsequent period the route was surveyed at the expense of the State, and an estimate of the cost reported by the surveyor, which ainounted to so large a sum, that it was deemed imposstble to raisea sufficient sum by subscription to accomplish the work; no stock has been taken, and the charter remains inoperative ; although there can be no doubt, but that stock in such a concern would be very profitable if the work were once completed. Under these circumstances, it has been proposed, in order tu u-complish this very desirable object, to raise by subscription a sum suflicent to pay a lrberal salarv to some eilicient agent who should devote his whole time and attention to acquiring such statastical information as would be useful on the subject and by personal observation make a more accurate estimate of the cost —and afterwards raise the necessary funds by selling the stock in a distant market, where money is more abundant than in North Carolina. It is supposed that an efficient person could be procured aitend to the business for the sum = of $2,500 per annum; which mustnot be con- sidered given away by those who pay it: and i: will probably require two or more vears of careful application before the work can be commenced on the most approved and economical plan. In order tu raise the funds to begin this necessary previous ex- amintion and initial process, it is further proposed, that 500 persons in the Districts of the Cape Fear and Yadkii shat! piedge themselves to give five dvilars per year each, for two or three years,to be expended fur that purpose. [tis confidently expect- ed that this proposed mode of operation will prove successiul—and no subscriber would find himself a louvser by the proposed do- nation—as it is certain that ui real proper- ty within anv reasonable distance of the intended road would, upon completion of such road, be enhanced in value from fifty to one hundred per cent.

Now, if I understand the precedents right, they establish the principle that, whenever the parliamentary proceedings infringe on the rights, real or supposed, of the Execu- tive Chief Magistrate, he sends for the jour- nals, or comes to the House, and strikes out the offensive matter with his own haad. When on the contrary, the powers of the bocy, on legislative inatters are impugned by the vole, order, or resolution, or are im- properly exercised, the erasure is made by an officer, under the order of the House. Such appears to be the practice there; and if its to govern us here, let as have it in its purity. The resolution, therefore. pro- posed by the Senator, is entirely gratuitous; the thing can be done, and, strictly speak- ing, ought to be done, without any action on our part. ‘I'he President himself, accor- ding to the exccllent rules of Parliament which the gentleman recommends to our a- doption, has the right to send for our jour- nals, and make such correction in them as he thinks fit. That Senaters may see that | am not mistaken on this subject, 1 beg leave to quote them the following illustri- ous precedent, derived from the act af the renowned and sapient King James THE First, of blessed memory. The House of Commons in England, sir, at the time when their glorious contest be- tween the perogative of the Crown, and the rights of the People was about to commence, passed the following resolution: “The Commons now assembled in Par- lament, being justly occasioned thereunto, concerning sundry libertics, franchises, and privileges of Parliament, amongst others here mentioned, do wake this protestation following: that the iibertics, franchises, and jurisdictions of Parliamentarethe ancient & and undoubted birthright and inheritance of the subjects of England;& that the urgent and arduous affairs concerning the king,state, and defence of the realm,and of the church of England, aud the maintenance and ma- king ot laws, and redress of mischiefs and grievances, which daily happen within this realm, are proper subjects and matter of counsel and debate ia Parliament; and that, in the handling and proceeding of those businesses, every member of tiie House of Parliamecut hath, and of riglit ought tobave, freedom of speech to propound, treat, rea— | son, and bring toe conclusion the same; and thatthe Commons in Parliament. have like liberty and freedom totreat of ihese matters, in such order as, in their judgment, shell seem fittest; and that every member of the said House hath like freedom frem all im- peachment, impngonment, and moiestation (other than by censure of the House itself) for cr concerning any speaking, reasoning, or deciarizg of any matter cr matters, touch- ing the Parliament or Parhament business Aud thet. if eny of the’ said members be compianed of, andquestioned for eny thing | done. ov said in Parliament, the same is to} be shuwn to the king. by the advice and consent, of all the Cominons, assembled in "Parliament, before the king give credence to any private miormaiion.”” The sovereign just alluded to, sir, on learning this audacious svowa! of right en the part of the Cemmons, wes extremely -_~- ing for the journals, struck out the resélu- tion with his own hand. py Wii commence on Wedat-cey, te day of Siay next, and continue tuur day».

You pause for a moment, and cannot conceal the einotions which the ef- fecting scene gives rise to;you are, however, at last composed, and you address the Pres ident in these words: ‘SirE: The Senate of the United States have imposed on me the most agreeable du- ty of annoencing to you the object which has induced them to request your presence in their chamber. Deeply impressed with the velue of your services in the field and the cabinet; convinced, that under Divine Providence, you have rendered more servi- ces to mankind ‘than any other mortal who has ever lived in the tide of time, they are anxious to show your devotion to your person, and their sensibility to your fame. It 1s with grief they are under the necessity of saying that there 1s found on their jour- nal a resolution of this body, which 1s un- worthy of them and of you. That reselu- tion declares that the Senate differ in opin- 1on with you on the lawfulness and consti- tutionality of one of your public acts—a declaration, sir, which they had no authori- ty to make, and which is untrue, inasmuch as its dissents from the opinion of yoo, the wisestand the best. ‘T’he Senate have re- solved that it shall be expunged from their branch of the Legislature shall, in all time hereafter, keep within its constitutional pow - ers, and express no opinton on any act of the Chief Magistrate. The Senate have considered, sir, that it would be more grate- ful to you, and more conformably to prece- dents drawn from the purest periods of British history, that you sbould expunge this odious resolution with your own haud. The manner in which the expurgation should be effected is left entiiely to your discretion. To erase the resolution by drawing black lines around it, is the mode preferred by many of your friends, and par- ticularly by that distinguished and high- minded body, the Virginia Legislature. | present you, sir, this pen, that it may. in your own hand, ayenge your wrongs, and shall only further say, sir, thatthis is the happiest and proudest moment of my life.

Ttre last New Orleans Bulletin contains a letier from Gen Houston, giving the par- ticulars of the above horrid tragedy, Tbe Fort was attacked on the 6th March, about midnight, by Santa Anna in person with 2000 men. They were repulsed with the loss of 500 to 800 men. Ia the mor- ning the Texians, 150 in number, were call- ed ou to surrender unconditionally, which they refused; but proposed to surrender as prisoners of war, which was agreed to. But no sooner had they marched out and stack - ed their arms, than a general fire wis open- ed upon them by the whole Mexican force ! They attempted to escape, but only three succeeded, one of whoin was Col. John- gon. One woman, Mrs. Dickinson, and a ne- gro, were the only persons whose lives were spared. We regret to find the names of Col David Crockett, Col. Jesse Benton; and Col. Bonham, of S, C. among those who perished. Gen. Bowie was murdered in his bed, sick and helpless Gen. Cos, on finding the dead body of Col. Travis, drew hissword and mangled the face and limbs with the malignant feelings of a savage, The bodies of the dead were thrown in- to a heap and burned, The effect of these horrible atrocities uUp- on the Texians was electrical.

Bonypart had sense enough in his fright to know the shortest way home, and instead of taki ig the old country. road, away round by Carter’s tavern, he steered straight up the new one by the blacksmith’s shop. Ralph Staples was thereshoeing a horse,and was stooping at this moment, with his head downwards, and clerching the nails Hear- ing the noise behind him, be took a peep between his legs, and could hardly believe hits own eyes when he saw old Bony in such a gale. He dropped his tools in less than no time; ran to two places at once for his hat without finding it; then wiped his face with his leather apron and gallied out bare- headed. He was just too late to get hold of the brid!e, but in time to show his good will; and then all he could do was to fall in behind, and join in the cry of the boys ‘Stop the horse,’ as loud as he could bawl. Never mind, here comes more help. It was Jonny Beedle and the mare.

He neither dared go onward or stop; and what does he do but fetch a whirl, clear round on the spot, and run back again. The whirl was so quick, that Jack thought it a miracle that the shay was not upset and broke all to splinters, and the girls smashed into mince meat.

Mind I give you Mr. Robinson’s, word for this, not mine. He was there, and J was not. As for the gitls, they shut their eyes and held their breath, and bow they reached the bottem of the hill right end upward they cannot tell. But more help was at hand. ‘Stop that horse!” The boys had been left far behind in therace,and when the shay reached the crotch they were just passing Joho Hathaway’s. They had run them- ' selves out into a long string, the biggest in front, and tapering off with a full tail grow- iog smaller and smaller down to notbing— hooting and hollaring in all sorts of voices; hoarse and rough at the big end, running down to a squeal behind clear away out of hearing. When the foremost boy saw the turn things had taken at the crotch, he was stuch with a lucky thought. It was only to take a short cut acrogs Ben Legs’s meadow, and strike the new course in the sand be-|! tween Legg’s and widow Bean’s. It wasa thought and a jump, and he was over the fence, calling ‘this way boys, head him off And all the boys, one after another took up the cry and jumped over too. When the girls upened their eyes at the foot of Stony Hitt the meadow was swarming with tow s ] \ I and bachelor’s buttons. lt was long legged Zach ‘Taft that came first. He wasintime and had only to get over the stone wall to save the three Rawson girls. But there was the rubb. ‘The wall stood so slender and ticklish, that it was dangervus for a bird to light on it, let alone Zach Taft. ‘I'he mourent he mounted it crumbled un- der hims perch or more, and down he came sprawling on his belly in the midst, and swim. ming into the middle of the road upon an ocean of rulling stones. Bonyparte gave a wide sheer, and eseaped with the tright. But he had no time to brag it was now touch and go by with him, for every rod that he went a fresh bulting over the wall by his side, with a hollar ‘stop that horse, stop that horse!’ till he came to the wid- ow Bean's; and hereto put a finishing stroke to his fright, stuod the widow at the duor, slakieg her table cloth in the sir, and calling the chick-. ens to eat the crumbs—'‘biddy--biddy--bid-: “dy!” By this time, squash corner was all in an up- toar. Women squalling, boys shouting, dogs barking from all quarters. The men were all gone to training. But every body now ran to- gether towards Carter’s tavern, and the soldiers grounded theirarms with one accord, and ran with the rest. Old Bonypart left I all behind and passing Carter’s tavern, he shot down the Barbary ruad and was soon out of sight.—The road ran down a hill that was both high and steep, and at the bottom you come to a muddy brook and a bridge that always had one rotten plank io it to say no more. As soon as it was known that the horse had gone the Barbary road the cry was raised. ‘The Rawsva girls will be spilt in the muddy brook! spilt in the muddy brook, jus ¢ as sartin——’ O misery!

The elective franchise has been invaded by one arm the of Govenment: the ballot box— the right of the people to select their own agenis, has been attacked by Congress; it was well nigh usurped by individuals who are not of of us, who care not for us—who who in fact are mostly against us. A most foul attempt was made to defraud our State of its Jegitimate strength on the presidentiat: question and shall we, who have the con- trol of a public presss—shall any man who calls bimselfa FREEMAN hesitate to proclaim his sentiments, as well of the act as its _per- petrators?

It would be better for the citizens of Fay- etteville to sell one half of all they are worth in the world, and apply it to the construc: tion of soue work for s-curing to their market the produce of the valley of the The time will soon come when mighty efforts will be nade to carry it towards Pctersburg or Nor- folk. We learn, that the eye of enterprise beaming with bright anticipations, has been secretly gazing upon this prolificregion,and Fayetteville should know that whenever the hand ofenterprise shall stretch forth from that quarter, ours will be extended to receive it: There is only one way to prevent thisyand that is, for Fayetteville to begin before hand As North Caroli- ntans, we would much prefer that the profit Yadkin,than to loose that trade. and secure the prize: which is to be made on tbe first sale of pro- duce, after it leaves the hands of the Pro- ducer, should accrue to citizens of our own State—we have many sympathies and_par- tialities for Fayetleville—we most ardently desire her prosperity: but her interest is nev- ertheless, secondary to that of our farmers and Planters; and the first available scheme will be embraced with eagerness by this portion of the West, to secure good prices, no matter whether these may be obtained in Fayetteville or Petersburg. It does, therefore, seem most strange, that the citi- zens of Fayetteville should remain inert un- der these circumstances: It will be in vaio to begin after the effort shall begin in an- other quarter—we have been looking to- wards her for earnest measures so long that we have well nigh ceased to hope: she could not—she would not blame us, if her ioterests should be lost sight of on any new prospect opening wpon us. She would re- member how often we have conjured her to inake an effort for berself—she would re- mem ber this earnest caution aad appeal that we now make, and when the lust barrel of flour or bale of cotton may have been rolled from Rowan to Fayetteville—she could on- ly have the miserable consolation of remem- bering that it was her own fault: a prudent forecast, a liberal sacrifice of present means to future aggrancisement, would have preven- ted the desertion of her former customers: but they would not make it, and they must take the consequences: We said in the beginning of this article, that it would be better for Fayetteville to sacrifice half of all they are worth to secure the surplus pro- duce of the valley of the Yadkin, and we solemnly believe in its truth.

A real raw of a chap went with bis iniended to Asneville tu get liceise to be married, but the | Clerk was nut there; he lived atew miles in the country : su they did not Know what to do | ’Lney were informed however, that Mr.C., a | nerchantin the piace, delivered wut jicenses for the Ulerk in his absence. Away they posted tu the store and asked ite: vad marriage li- cemses tu sei! there.” “Phe aorchant answered, that he usaally kept licenses there fur the Clerk, out that the whuie stuck was exhausted. This was awkward again : the two louvers hada con- sultatiug—it was tuo late to gu to the Clerk in the country, and there seemed no alternative but a pustpouemeat of the wedding : when of a sudden the gloomy pruspect was cleared up— Van Wilsun, a merry Constavle, saw that the Bridegroom was a flat: he saw too, the awk- wardness of their predicament, and beckoning the fellow to one side, he asked hin who was to mary him. ‘ Squire WW.’ was ine answer: ‘1 | can give you license’, said the Constable. © Can youu,’ said the countryman, and his heart leapt tor joy. The wriuug was drawo, and it ran nearly thus, “Old W—— You d—d vid fool, You are hereby commanded to vind this Rascalin the bands of matrimeoy with this b—ch, firm and tight, and be d—d to yuu. Sigued, Nobody.” Squire W 22 good, easy, conscientious man, lived in the border of the town of Asheville —thitber the devoted two repaired and made known their business. ‘The Squire simply ask- ed it they had a license ; on the fellow’s an- sweting that he had, he proceeded withvat far- ther parley, to tie the knot; shortly thereafter, the effectual rite of stowing away (as the gail- ors have it) was duly performed. And now, we must for a while, Jeave the parties to their happiness, while we change the scene for a mo- ment ; and this carries us back to Asheville, Dan Wileon was so full of his joke, that he whispered it first in ope ear and then in another, until every wag of a merchant's clerk in the vil. Jage had got wind of it—so after the stores were closed for the aight and supper was over, several of them marched down to the Squire's to see how tae thing had taken with him : ‘ Well, Squire,’ says one of them, ‘ we heard there was to be a wedding here tonight, and we have come down to see it.’ ‘ You are too late,’ says the Squire, * the wedding is over and the parties are gone to bed.’ * But’ enquired the spokesman of the par- ty, ‘ did they have a license Squire,’ « Why yes,’ said he, ‘ | suppose they had—I asked the man and he said he had.” ‘ Well, bat did you see it—it is well envugh to look into these lieve he has so far dune so, that we may safely conclude that he is in favor of the princi- ples of the Abulitionists ; that he is opposed to the distribution of the proceeds of the sale of the public lands among the States ; that he is the origin and cause of that Pruscription of public mea for opinion’s sake, which so much prevails with the present Adwinistration ; and finally, that ajl his efforts asa statesman, have always been for the advancement and promotion uf hig own, ang his partisans iuterests and welfare, re- gardl ess of the rights cnd interests of the whole pation.

PETERS’ Segetadble AntizBilious Pills Are the cheapest and most approved FAMILY MEDICINE ever offered to the Public. ‘They are extremely mild ia their operation, neither causing sickness of the stomach, nur any un- pleasant sensation in the system, as is lov fre- quently the result from medicine given to act upon the bowels. ‘hey act specifically upon the Liver, when in a torpid condition, carrying off a large quantity of bile, through the influence off the excernent function, which, if suffered to remain in the system, would produce either Jauo- dice, Liver Complaint. Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, or some oiher grievous bodily affliction. In all cases of torpur of the bowels, they act like acharm. In recent cases of Dyspepsia, thes areacertain cure. Many persons who were subject to vivlent attacks of sick head-ache, haee | been much benefitied, aud several perfectly cur- ed in a few weeks by teeiruse. They are highly recommended as a preventive and cure of Bilivus complaints. Persons who are subject to that distressing comp.aiot, sea-sickness, by taking a portion or two of them a few days previous to embarking on board the vessel, will be almost certain to escape it. Females can use them at all periods, without incurring any risk. Persons going to sea, or toa southern climate, should by | all meave take some of these Pills with them:.— Their virtues will remain unimpaired for years inany climate. No fainily should be wiiheut | these Pills 3 # portion of them, taken occasis!: | ly. would be the tweans of preventing muci: suf | fering trom sickness. It is from neglect of keep 1 ing ap areguiar peristaltic action uf the stomach | apd bowels, tive suffering to be absoroed and | mingled with the bloud, unassimifated fleids, : that most diseases are produced. Dr. P. teels , confident that no person who gives these Pils k | fair trial, will ever after feel willing to be with- out them. ‘The testimony of thousands eperk- ing in the highest terms of their eflicacy, tight be added, but the very high reputation Dr P. | has acquired as the javeuiur of the * Patent | Vegetable Medicine Stomachice et Hepalice,” for the cure of Dyspepsia and Liver cunpiaints, is thought a sufficient guarantee to those wish- ing to make a trial of their virtues. They con- tain not a particle of Mercury, or any ingredient that does not act in harmony with health and up- pose disease. Dr. P. wishes it distinctly understood, thet these Piils possess beneficial qualiites indepen- dent of their purgative effects ; they are both to- nic ard deobstruent, acting upon the secreting and exbalent functions ; thus strengthening the patient, while they remove obstructions.-— Medicines which possess no other, excepting ca- thattic qualities, debilitate the patient, and their repeated use lays the foundation of a long cata- jogue of Chronic diseases. Dr. P. having been educated under the most eminent American and European Medical pro- fessors, and practiced his profession many years in the South, where diseases of the most obsti- nate character prevail, considers himeclf well qualified to judge on the nature of diseases inci- dent to wario clunates. { ! \ Prepared by Jos+rH Priestiry PETERS, M.D. P.B.C P.M.at his Insiitution for the cure of obstinate Diseases, by means of vegetable re- mevies, No. 129 Liberty street, New York, tn- ventor and sole proprietor.

Mr. Speaker: I sincerely regret that this contested election ever came before Congress. I regretthat the valuable time of this House should be consumed in _ rela- tion toa question which is peculiarly the province and the business of the people at home todecide. [ regret that some fifty or sixty thousand dollars. of the public money _ shou!d be ex pended in the investigation ofthis subject. 1 regrst the wide and irrelvant : range of the debate on this matter: and in my head & 1n my heart, I regret to have wit- | nessed some of the scenes which transpired ‘in this temple of liberty on Saturday night & Sunday morning last,for,sir,day was dawning | when the House adjuurned. In the midst of these regrets, | have one most cheering consolation and reflection. I hope the House and the country will bear in mind that | heve had noagency,neither part nor lot, in instituting and introducing this protrae- ted prosecution. | am no volunteer in this matter. | am th- defendant, and a most | unwilling party to this procedure. My du- | ty, not my will, connects me with this vex- | atious contest. The verdict of the People, | and the judg-nent of their own appointed sworn officers, solemnly rendered on the faithful finding the ballot-box, bas imposed upon me obligations and duties which, J should be recreant to freemen and freedom if | voluntarily abandoned. A deep sense of duty, as a high regard for the right of suffrage and the majesty of the People whose sovereign will has been collected and proclaimed from the ballot-box compel me to stand forth & endeavor to vindicate the rights, & privileges,& honor of my constitu- ents. ‘These very constituents are looking with an eagle’s eye, and turning an atten- tive ear to the proceedings of this body. They are quite anxious to learn and ascer- tain whetber their constitutional rights to elect their own agents, which is the highest privilege of a republican freeman and an A- merican citizen, are to be superseded and sacrificed. ‘They desire to know whether their old, known, and well-established cus— toms, usages, and habits of themselves and their ancesters are to de violated and de- stroyed, to defeat their own expressed will.

I hold-the proposition too clear to be coutroverted, that no individual in this repubiic, from the garret to the cellar, ean be deprived of his rights aad privileges, but by previous notice to himself or agent: and that notice must be so definite and certain as to inform the party whose rights are to be affected, distinctly and expressly of the particular grounds of complaint against him. This clear Priaciple is interwoven and incorporated. wath all ou rights, and surely it cannot be @ispensed with and ut- terly disregarded, when the great question of liberty and freedom of elections are di- rectly involved. { cannot perceive why Mr Newland refused to comply with this reasonable request; it was due in the fair- ness to the voters, and if he had, before ta- king his testimony, presented me with a list ofthe names of the alleged illegal voters, and the particular objection to them, then | would have informed them of the charge, and they could have bad an Opportunity of defending themselves. But it is political robbery to take a freeman’s nights away from bim without previous notice to him or his agent. It will not do to hang a man ‘o-day, and present the accusation to-mor- row. I believe some good Jegal voters have been deprived of their equal rights and highest privileges, by this unjust pro- cedure, Mr. Newland proposes, and asks the House, to strike from iy poll a large num- ber of voters who voted out of the counties in which they reside. Sir, there are two o- pinions in North Carolina among the Peo- ple, with regard tothe right of voting be- yond the limits of the county wherein you reside for Congress. One vpinion is, you must vote, actording to the letter of the Constitution, in the vounty only where you reside. ‘The other opinion 1s more broad aad libera!, 1s supposed to embrace the spir- tof the constitution, and permits a man living in ti. congressional district, to vote for Congress in any county therein. In Georgia, acitizen thereof, I am infurmed, can vole in auy county in tbe whole State for Cougresy. In South Carolina too, | lear you may vote any where in the con- gressiotal district fur Congress. Now, sir, when tnere are two opinions emanating from 1espectable sources on this subject, | presume it vecoines this honotabie House lo saciae on the side of tibertr= 1 can didly confess, if this were an open ques- ion, and never had heretofore been decided otherwise by the inspectors uf the election, and the Peopie themselves in my district, | siould say a man could only vote in the county wherein he resided. But inasmuch as there are respectable persons entertainng vUpposite Opinion; and since there is positive proof that ithas always been customary for mea living in the 12th congressional district to vote for Congress at any election in that district, and since the real result of the elec- tion would not be changed so far as this class Of voters are concerned, if they had voted for the same eandidates in their own counties; and since the object and duty of Congress should be, not to deprive freemen ut their privileges, but to protect them in the real enjoyment of liberty: then, for these reasons, founded in justice and equity, | contend the honest freemen who lived in the district, but voted out of their own counties, ought not to. be deprived of their votes, The proofs establishing this custom of voters living in the congressional district | vollbg in any county therein are clear & con- clusive; first, by the positive proof of Rob- ert Hall, one of the judges of the election 2d, by the fact that the sheriffs & inspectors | of every county in the distitct received votes of tbat class in the iast congressional election. Third, | perceive trom tue poll-lists & proofs that Dr. James ‘Tate,who isa first cousin of the petitioucr, made a pudiic Speect, aud then voted against me out of the county if bot outthe Statein which beresided. Fourth, | Sainuel Newland and Washington New- | land, the two brothers of the petitioner, voted for him m August last, for Congress, out of the county in which tiey reside. | Mr. Speaker, | have still more important and tliumpbant evidence to establish this liberal custom. I have proof nearer home, proof that sticks closer than a brother. 3}; ' see on the congressional po!l-bouk,at Frank- | lin, in Macon county, the name of Daniel Mewland, the petitioner himself, who hives in Burke county, atleast one hundred and fiity mites from where he voted for Con- | | yress, passing throughout Burke county,and | , Voter to give us inany tickets as there are | county in which be lived, still he had done 80 10 &@ mere jest or joke. A Joke, eh! Mr. Speaker, thisis a Very serious joke. What 18 fun to some may be death to others. this ever was a a much at the ex hope this petitio if joke, it ts one quite too pense of othér people. | ner will not carry his jokes so far as to deprive my howest constituents of their ancient customs and Just rights. Now, with this pregnaat proof and dis- linguished example before you; what will this honorable House do with that largest class of voters who voted out of the coun~ ties in which they lived? because without striking them from tiny poll, this petitioner, every one sees has no hope of success. | Will tell you what you ought to do. Re- collect the people do not petition to disturb their own verdict; no sir, the jurors are all satisfied; but the defeated party, single and alone, petitions to set aside the verdict of the ballot-box. You ought to say to him what a court of equity would say tohim if he were to apply to them to set aside this class of voters: show merits on your own side, and @n in- | Jury done to you, we will inter pose our au- thority and grant redress.” ‘The papers are read, and it is seen that the family of the petitioner and himself bave done the very thing which he complains of in others. The judge looks with astonishment,and address- es the petitioner thus: 1 see you, yourself, have voted out of the county in which you live. This is a aourt of equity; and should | not do imquity. The principle of this | honorable court of conscience is the repub- lican rule. Equality is equity, and must be dealt out to ail alike, without disunction of persous. You must do unto others as ye would that they should do unto you.

I have been surprised to hear gendemen from all sides of the House introduce the next presidential election in this debate. Sir, my constituents have a clear right, net only to elect whomsoever they please to re- Present them on this floor; butthey have the same right to vote for whom they please for the next President ; they know my set- iled and declaree determination, in the e- vent of the presidential election coming be- petitioner.’ Although the committee struck thirteen voters from my poll, for voling out | of their counties, yet the petitioner; Mr. | Newland, is permitted to retain on bis poll | the votes of his cousin and brothers that | Lave done the very same thing. This is left handed justice, sir, anda burning shame. Mr. Speaker, uf this House should turn one wember out and turn another in, by ta- king such unfair advantages of my constitu- ents, there will be fire in the mountains. Sur, there will be one general burst of fiery indignation. When you improperly inter- fere with high privileges, and infringe up- an the rights of the ballot-box, you touch a magazine. A single spark might cause an explosion which will wound; cripple, and perchance kill those who may wantonly ap- ply the match. Notwithstanding the commttee have said, I shail not have oue of the votes which was given to me out of the county in which the voter lived,yetthey have said that Newland shall have 3 votes added to his poll that were given to him at the Henderson precinct, in Buncombe county, from three voters living in Yancy county. Is this even handed justice? Is this weighing out impartial Jusuce in golden scales ? No, sir: It is the game ol ** heads, he wins—tails, I lose.”’ A good rule ought to work both ways. ‘Te commitice have done me and my constituents, in another respect, great in-| justice. ‘hey have said that Mr. New- | land shall, at the Franklin precinct in Ma- | con County, retain five voies that are ex- pressiy proven to be taken, not from the Congress box, but from the Commons box. Mr. Robert Hall establishes this fact; and Mr. J. W. Killian also swears that * all the tie candidates for Congress, were given for Newland,’ and there were 5 or 6. ‘They were all counted for Newland tn the con- gressional election. ‘lhe return of the ot- ficers of that election coufirms the evidence of these two respectable witnesses; for it siiv'v\s only four hundred and forty-five volcrs’ Lames registered on the poll book, | and yet four hundred and fifty votes were counted for Congress. By adopung this unjust rule, you put it in the power of one different boxes to one caiudidate ; and you | supercede the necessity of separate boxes. | In the case of a contested election in this | House, in the year 1830, of Washburn a- | gainst’ Ripley it was expressly deci- ded that ** the intention of a voter is to be' ascertained only from the box in which his | ticket ts deposited’? ‘I'he majority of the committee (if there be any majority,) have | entirely misconceived and misrepreseited | the evidence,both of Hall & Killian,as any | gentleman willsee by reading their evidence , fore this House, to vote for and support that candidate who shall receive a majority of the votes in my district. The opinions of a majority of the people of my district, as expressed at the polls in November next, in the chuice of electors, will be my letter of instructions on thet great question, and I shall cheerfully set iu obedience thereto. Sir, Congress should be deprived, in any event, of electing a President; and then you woulc not see this temple of liberty and legislation continually converted to the illegitimate purpose of President-makin gs and usurping the rights of the people. I have entertained and expressed these views and sentiments at home as well as here. My opinions in relation to this question have undergone no change. They were the same last summer as they are this wite ter. My honest constituents can neither be bought nor sold while their rights are committed to my keeping. I have advert- ed to this subject. not because I feel any obligation or accountability to any man, or set of men here: add my responsibilities are to the people at home. Mr. Speaker, if I believed for one mo- ment that I was not fairly and duly ele et- ed a member of this honorable body, I would resign my seat before the setting of the sun. Ido not desire a seat here unless I obtain it as the voluntary freewill offering of freemen. I was born free and indeden- dent and by the permission of Divine Providence, I intend to live and die so. All |the advantages of the last summer’s cam- paigo were in favor of the petitioner and a- gainst me. He had a very extensive, nu- , merous, and wealthy connexion in the dis- : Uriet. ‘tickets takeu from the Cominons box for | His father, bothers, and cousins, pervaded and intersected every cove and neighborhood in that widely-extended dis- trict, to favor the wishes of the petitioner. I stood alone, without a relation in the dis- trict—no, nut one. But the bone and sin- _ew,the nerve and inuscle of the country— yes, sir, the workingmen, the farmers and tax-pavers sustained me, and I was elected by the People. After the secrets of the bal- lot-box were unfolded and told, and proc- lamation duly made, I hoped, and fondly hoped that | should find some rest, and that the voice of the People would have been acquiesced in and submitted to without a murmur. But not so. I have since been pursued m the most unexampled and uuti- riog manuer. Through these embarras- sing trials | have had no assistance in the management of this case. ‘The petitioner employed an able Federal lawyer of this city lo prepare and argue his cause before the committe. He made all his arguments for him and drew up all the papers attach- ed the report of the committee signed by the pevoner, and has been his constant coun- evtirely across Buncombe and Haywood : & comparing it with the report. The report | sellor up to this time. counties into Macon, to vote for Congress. And now, since the majority of the people have solemniy declared he is not elected, he turns round and says no man shall be permitted to have bis vote counted for me, (Giabam,) who voted for Congress out of the county in which he lived; and be grave- ly insists that | must loose ail votes of that description. The plain practical result is this: he says other freemen shall not do that which his cousin, and two brothers, and himself, all diddo. Is this equa! rights and common privileges? Is this just.equit- able, reasonable, or republican? Our bill of rights declares that no man or set of men shall be entitled to exclasive pr:vileges. | cannot Consent that my worthy constituents shall not enjoy equality and liberty with perticular and | osher men: and be debarred from the hallot- box, and deprived of their privileges at the | makes Robert Hall swear what he never said.

Neither ' Hali nor Killian says there was any mis- | itake. I am pleased to see one of the five ‘members who signed that report rise in his place and disciaim and deny that he ever agreed to this part of the report; but ' polls, when the petitioner himself aad his sull, I regret to see his name sanctioning Mr. Speaker, | am exhausted and tired of this contested election; you sir, the House, and the country know it is not one of my seeking. The People at home know that daty to myself and to them imposed upon me a most unwelcome participation in this unprofitable contest. It is true, my majority was small, bat he who lives ina smail log cabio is just as much bound to defend it as though it were a large castle. His house is his castle, without regard to size ; and he who will not protect and en- deavor to defend it, is worse than an infidel. The People placed me in this House, their Capitol, and commanded me to defend it and keep out intruders.

The sixth -section of the first arycle of the Constitativn provides that ‘‘the Senators and Representatives shall receive a compensation for their services to be asvertained by law and paid out. of the Treasury of the United states.” In pursusnce of this constitutional requirement, Congress has fixed and ‘‘ ascertained by law” the compensation of each member of Congress. — His per diem and mileage are regulated by stat- ute. But the compensation allowed is in favor ot members uf Congress ; those who are rightful- ly or de facte members, and not those who would be mewubers ; not tothuse who clatm seats, but never get (hem ; not to those who contest the e- lection of a.sitting member, and whose effurts to obtain the seat fail, by the judgment of the House. ‘There is nolaw, then, which embraces and provides cumpensation for a case like this.— The very fact that it reqaireg a resolution, is roof conclusive that there is nolaw under which r. Newland can be paid; and sir, instead of paying him by law, yougre now about to give hiny by@ resolution of thi@fLouse out of the con- tingent fund eight dollars per day fur attendance here ight dollars per day furevery twenty toiles tragpl; and you are about to do this, with- out the cofcurrence of the Senate and without the approval of the President, as direeted by the Constitution. You are thus giving to a resolu- tion of one branch of the legislative departinent the effect of taking the People’s money out of the Treasury, in a manner unknown to the Con- Stitution, and in direct violation of its plainest provisions. The regolution proposes to take the money out of the contingent fund of this House. You had aa well take money of that fund to build a bridge or pavea street, or erect a lighthouse, or to build a ship, or to pay your suldiers and sailors. 1 un- derstand the contingent fund is provided by law to defray the expenses of this House, and what- ever work and labur this House orders to be done is tobe paid for oatof it. Thus you pay tor rinting ordered tobe done for the use of the ouse, and fur the services of boysand men in attendance, out of this fund. But what service has David Newland rendered to this House or tu the country 2 What work and labor has he Pere for which he deserves compensation ? e was anxious, [ admit. to labor with usina legislative capacity, but this House refused to let him do that by deciding that it had no right thus to legislate ; and now wo are called on to pay him, as though he had labored. ‘Thus, sir, you are about to pay full wages when no work has been dune, aud when you have determined that the maa had noright to work! 2 think the farcners and mechanics of the country will consi- der it a strange decisiuo. ‘They will never be able to understand how it is Proper to pay for work never perfurmed, and which the claimant had no right to perform. F admit, sir, if Mr. Newland had been entitled to a seat the case would have been altered. If he had been elected by a Majority of the quali- | ified voters of his district, he woul had a right to labor with us, and ee hegre have permitted him todo 90; and, in that event we should, as Just men, pay him for all the time he bad been waitiag here, king at the door aad askiog to be let in, for the purpose of dis- charging the doties he had a right to perform — In that case, it would have been no fault of his that he did not work, and it would have been his duty to offer himself, and to make, ag it were, a legal tender of his services. Then, when his right was acknowledged, and a seat given to him, bis pay shonid go back, and embrace all the time be had been in attendance, assertiag his right to labor.

The Senate have just passed the bill providing for the adinissicn of Michigan intu the Union, and ordered the Arkansas bill to be engrossed and read a third time on Monday. For the last two days the rowdies of this budy, the Bentons, Hills, Niles and Walkers, have beea attempting to play off the same game in which their yoke- fellows of the other Huase were so siguatly de- feated on the Saturday and Sunday uf meimura- ble riot and confusion. The Michigan bill, as you are aware,has been uider discussion fora few days, and has. “met with the decided opposition of all the friends of thé constitution in the Senate, on the ground that it directly violates the requirements of that sacred instrument, in several particlaré. Mr. Southard concluded an able speech against it yesterday, at the usual hour of adjournment;, bal, instead of breaking ap and going to dioner,, the party determined to push the bill throagh ‘per fas aut nefas. Some sharp skirmishing took’ plate. You have, doubtless, derived from another q-sar- ier an account of the personal scene between Clay and Buchanan. I am tid by: those who witness it tpat it was one of the best things of the kind that has ever occurred in Congress. Bachanan’s manner is frequently made up entire ly of affectation, and the pompous stiffieas.of lis fine attitudes in veseribing how he haranged his f-llow-ciizens at ihe time of the enemy’s ipVasiun, and how he hurried down to Baltimore tw repel the British from that beautiful city,must haye furajsh- ed a capital field fur fun. [can readily imagine this ridiculous case. His manner of telling a really good story is inimitable, and, on this oc- casion, it wag so smouth and good-tewpered that no one but Buchanan felt the sinallest degree of pain from the application. It was very foulish in him to have taken the matter so much to heart. It showed grievous want of both taste and tact In spite of all the efforts and remonstrances, and appeals of our patriotic and high-minded friends, Van Buren and his "*rarL” prevailed,the bill was passed toa third reading, aud they ad- journed at half past eight o'clock. Tu-day Judge Porter noved for a recunidera- tion of the vote of last night and the recymmit- ment of the bill, t motion ita short speech distinguished by his sumnewhat vehement eloquence with which he is accustumed to assail the corruption and unprinci- pled management of the party. He reminded the Senate of the strong objections that had aleady veen dwelt upon by him and others, to the ad inission of Michigan under present circumstances. She had come into the halls ut Congress withuut knocking at the portal. Her cunstitutiun gave to aliens aud even to runaway slaves the elective franchise. ‘This last point he urged with extra ordinary power, and made a powerful appeal to the Southern Senators tu unite in stamping on this provisiot, their decided and indigant repro- bation. oe Waker, of Mississippi, undertook to break a spear with the South Carulina statesman. [1 was a must inglorious one. It is really Jangha ble to see this little suinph bouncing up oa every oceasion tu add his pyor school-buy spouting to the debates of men on questions of mom.ntous interest. Amidst a great pile of fantastic ima- gery [ contrived to discover this original idea— the unly one that this garsh rhetoriciar delivered himself of in the course of haifan hour—that the Mution to reconsider was an afterthought! How Judge Porter with one or two of hia strong manly sentences, annihilated the pert stthhtersox from Mississippi! The Judge, as you kwow,is a native of the Emerald Isle, and one of the finest specimen of the true [rish character.

"Tis rightly fraught With random thought : And feelings wildly kind, boy!” His eloquence is marked by inany of the best qualities uf the better school of Irish orators, Cumpass and compression, force and brilliancy, a gravity that dignifies the highest,and a euavity that melts into consonance with the tenderes: themes, are the cuntradictions he has reconciled. Nor are these more conspicuous than his gay and deligutful hamour—the most genuine wit, fre- quently sharpened into the most cutiing aud cau- stic satire; and those noble bursts of declamation expressive at once of the emotions of sensibility and the thoughts of genius. On this occasion, Mr. Porter maintained his motion with great spirit and ene He gave sume severe side-blows to the Van Bureniteés, for pressing the measure so strongly; turned.

But itis natural to saspices the Post Office Department was rapidly advancing io. public favor, aud who managed it with a skill aod-economy surpassed unlv by the vigor and efficiency of its operations—why was he removed from that office? Simply vecaase he refused to permit it tu be cunverted irto a po- litical tnachine—because he refused tu turn out honest capable postinasters for no vther crime but the independent expression of their pulitical opinions arid to appoint others whose sole recom- mendation was their subserviency tu the “ pow- ers that be.” And what was the “reward” of Maj. Barry for permitting the affairs of his De- partment to be thus deranged? Was he laid aside for his ineompetency or negligence? No; he was only transferred from an office with a salary $9.000 coupled with an outfit of $9,000 addition- al! ‘This is one of the abuses of this adiniaistration, which the people have not scrutinized and con- demned as they should have done. ‘Their par- liality fur Jacksun has blinded them to the bial influences of too maay uf his measures of which this is oot the least acceptionable.

Jackson some twenty years ago, only reached his shoulder. I[t is singular how men's opinions change.

The last Standard, Governor Spaight’s offi- cial, announces the fact, that he will not order an election in the 12th Cungressioual District defure the elections in August. We were not altogether unprepared for this intelligence, for we had learned frum an undoubted suurce, that Mr. Newland, whu, by the bye, took Raleigh in his way home, said in the staye cuach aiterléav- ing that place, that he did not expect the Gov- ernor would appoint a day until the August E- lection. ‘Lhe Cunstitution of the U. States (section 2nd, clause 4th,) makes provision, that whenever a Vacancy shall hajpen in the repre- sentation of any State, the ** Executive authori This Constitution, Governor Spaight has sworn to ty’ thereof shall issue a writ of election. support, and the plain and obvious requirement is, that he will order an election as soun after a vacancy may happen as may consist with a rea- sonable time fur notive tu gu to the district! ; less therefure, it is clear beyond a doubt, that such an election would be nugatory, heis bound to issue the writ. Now, in the very nature of un- things, such a thing cantot be clear during the present session ; for they can sitas long as they choose,and if the latest experience on the subject is in the least relied oo, they will sit till some tine in July, fur such was the length of the last long session. The end of the session must therefore be unknown to him, and he was bound by the highest law of this country to do his part, that the people might forthwith provide them- selves a representative. In South Corolina, so sacred was regarded the right of ALL THE PEO- PLE to an equal voice in Cungress, and so impe- rative the duty of issuing writs of election, that about the 10th of June, in the last long session, an election was held to supply a representative in the place of Gen. Blair, dec’d. Mr. Graham was ejected on 29th day of March, and this was known to Governor Spaight in three or four days thereafier, say Ist or 2nd of April—surely it cannot be pretended that notice could not have been given and an election held during the month of April: should the Congress sit as late as it did in 1834, the new member would have more than two whole months toserve : and if no writ issues for the remainder of this session, for Two WHOLE MONTHS of the only important period of the session, the people of the 12th Congression- al district embracing 61,000 souls, will not be known or heard or felt. When His Excellen- cy was elected to the station which he now oc- cuptes, a writ of election was sent by the State of North Carvlina to provide a new Senator in his place tor the county of Craveo, althongh it was known that the Assembly was obliged to rise befure the Ist day of January, and although it did actually rise before Christmas—It was the sworn duty of the Governor to issue his writ let the vacancy have happened ever so late du- ring the present unlimited session, for he had no right to judge of its duration or of what impor- By he another word to our neighbor maar “a faithful sentinel,”’ tere, bound to watch over our Peionn| and feels for our apostacy d tener (alack! the tender See feelings ofthe most | tance it might be to the people of the District.— _ It inight be that on the very last day, important | interests to this section of the State might be | acted on and com promitted for the want ofa re- presentative. He is left by law without any Philo White, in his blundering way, has stated a truth which he was not aware of, we dare say. [le saysin his Standard of April 14th, If Mr. Graham, as they by their votes decided was not elected, Mr. Newland must have been, as by our laws a plurality of our votes elects, and it was not pretended that there wasa tie between the two claimants to the seat.’ Agreed sir, give us your hand on that! And now see where we will put you. ‘The same House that decided that Mr. Graham was not: elected also decided that Newland was not, aud we will read Mr, White's logic thus, ‘if Mr. Newland, as they by their votes deci- ded, was not elected, Mr. Graham must have been &c.” It is plain then that Con. gress did wrong in ‘rejecting the claims of. either one or the other of these Gentlemen; It ig not probable that the majonty would go against their own feelings and interests and refuse the seat to Newland, unless he was clearly not entiled ergo: Col! its a case: Graham was elected, and it was 4 rascally thing to turn him out, and = stii more 0, to keep him’ out by putting off the elec- ton.

GREAT MATCH RACE, This day came off the great Match race be- tween JIrgyle, a browa Bay Horse. 5 years ‘old, by Tonson Dam Thistle ; and John Bascom, Sorrel Horse, 4 years old by 8ertram, Dam Packolet, over the Augusta Course. It will be recollected, thut at the late meeting on this Turf, Argyle was maiched agalust Cul Crowell’s Stable, for $17,000, against $15,000. The Stable of Col. Crowell contained at the same time of making the Race, not only John Bas- com, bat also Biil Austin, Lady Nashville, aod Botivia. The bet was deemed injudicivus in the vptoion of many Tarfites, because one horse might be out of order ona particular day, but it was not probable that four bourses would be.— None acquainted with the powers of Argyle seemed to fear the result ifit were certain that he would be in proper condition. Never was the City of Augusta more thronged, and there could not have been less than five thousand Spectators of the race. From Lousi- ana to New Yurk there were visitors from every intervening State. The course was in splendid order, and the backers of Argyle confident of sac- vess. Nor were thev without friends to back their opinion. The immediate friends of Bag com were equally confident; but without their circle, Bascom found few to back him in eqas] bets. ‘T'wu to one were generally required, in sone instances ten to eight and ten to seven.

COMMUNICATED FOR THE WATCHMAN, DAVIDSON COLLEGE. The friends of this rising [nstiiution will doubt: less be gratified to hear of its progress. On Thursday Jast,at an adjourned meeting of Concard Presbytery was held at the site of the College,for the parpuse ot taakinga public, sulemn, dedica- lien, of their incipient designs to Alm ighty God. The morning being pleasant, a large and respec- table eonzregation convened at an early hour to witness tne solemnities of the occasion. . In conformity with arrangements previously made, after the introductory exercises of singing and invocation, an Address was delivered by the the Devicatory Prayer, offered by the Rev Dr. iobinsor.., "The service was concluded by sing- ing xi appropriate Hymn selected by the Rev. Dr. McCiee, and the Apostolic benediction. The interesting and opposite position which Mr. M. selected as the subject of his remarks, was, that True Religion is the only basis of na- tional prosperity—giving this term such latitude of dieaning as to embrace the welfare of learning, agriculture, commerce, the mechanic arts, and whatever else is essential to true glory and bap piness: The general tenor of his discussiun was sv directed as to give a two-fold confirma- tion to his proposition. ‘fhis was effected by showing’ in the Ist place, thatin no instance, where vital godliness has been wanting, have the blessings of linerty and learning, and national wealih and happiness, tu any considerable extent ur duration, prevailed: and 2d, that whereever Chrie!tanity has been diffused and preserved inits purity, it has been the uniform and certain pre- cursor of an intellectual & moral! elevativaof the people which prepared them for the enjoyment of liberty & of the blessings of civil and social life. ‘The iliustrations which he employed were chiefly derived frum history—a_ suurce as little liable ‘o exhaustion in its proofs uf these positions, as in referénce to any other tor which its aid has ever been suug't. ‘Phe annals of the world—ot every ‘nation and of every cuuntry—teach us that the Waowledge dnd the fear of God are the exact measure of civil freedum, anJ all its con- comitant advantages. Indeved, it requires but a hasty glance at the revolutions and downiail of empires, and the causeg which have Jed to thein, to discern that a reverence for the Bible, and the practice of trne virtue alone, can secure to any people happiness and the perpetuity of their In- stitutions. It would be a reproach to the wis- dum of tae wise, not to have learned, frum tie uniform Jesson of events, even if the truth had nut blaged on the page of inspiration, that “Tue NATION AND KINGDOM THAT WILL NOT SERVE Gob SHALL PERISH.’ As he advanced towards his conclusion, Mr. M. argued the necessity of a pious and learned Ministry to the success of religion. He also cummended the wisdom and munificence of the venerable Fathers of our country, fur the Irberal provisions which they early made for the educa- lion of the young, and especially of thuse inten- ded w be heralds of the gospel. ‘Ihe institu- tioos which they founded, had religion for their basis, and the promotion of religion for their ub- ject. ‘Hhey have generally proved, therefore in- er cease to be regarded by the virtuous and the Wise.a8 @ precious part of that must precious in- heritance which it has deen wur felicity to re- ceive from our ancesturs. But can this be aver- red in truth of those seminaries which have been attempted independently of religion?

Samuel Williainson, his non-acceptance of the Prufes- sorship uf Chemistry and Mathematics, to which he had been previously appuinted. ‘Che neces sily of filling the vacancy thus unexpectedly made, and alsu of electing a person tu the Office of Steward, rendering it expedient that the Pres- bytery stuuld convene again at a time not very remote, they therefure adjuurned to meet again at the Bethel Church on the first W ednesday In June at 11 o'clock A.

All convenient expedition in these arrange- ments is arged by the sanguine expectation that the calege will go into operation early iu the ensuing Fall. Charlotte, N. C. April 12, 1836.

Young said, (see page 191,) “The minds of the blacks are not com- petert to vote. ‘They are tuo much de- graded to estimate the value. or exercise, with fidelity and discretion, that important right.

Minors. too, and aliens, must no longer be excluded, but the ‘era of good feeling’ be commenced i earnest,” Mr. Livingston said: “Sir, we are standing upon the foundations of society. The elements of government are seattered around us. All rights are buried ; and from the shoots that spring from their yrave we are lo Weave a bower that shall oversha- dow and protect our liberties. Our pro- ceedings will pass in review before the power that elected us, and it will be for the people to decide, whether the blacks are elevated upoa a ground that we cannot reach. Sir, we, all of us, entered into the government subject to the impl.ed condi- tion, that our constitution was lable to re- vision and alteration, and that she blacks, inthis particular, have vested rights exempt from the power of abridgment or alteration, Which the whites bave not, T have yet to learn.” Mr. Jay.

Young) —They were avow- edly addreesed, not to our reason,but to our prejudives—and so forcibly have they been urged, that] feel persuaded that they have had more influence on the committee than all that had been said on this occasion. Though repeated in various forms, they may all be summoned up in this—that we are accustomed to look upon black men with contempt; that we will not eat with them ; that we will not sit with them; that we will not serve with them in the militia, or the juries, or in any manner associate with them ; and thence it is concluded that they ought not to vote with us. How, sir, can that argument be answered dy reason which does not profess to be founded on reason? Why do we feel reluctant to associ- ate with a black man?) =There is no such reluctance in Europe, nor in any conatry in which slavery is unkrown. It arises frum an association of ideas. Slavery and a black skin always present themselves to- gether tv our minds. But with the dimi- nution of slavery the prejudice is alread diminished ; and when slavery shall be no longer known among us, it will perhaps S.

On the 12th of September, 1821, the committee on the right of suffrage, report ed the following smendment to the coust? "Debates of the Convention, Every white male citizen of the age of 21 years, who shall have resided in the State for six months next preceding any election, &c. &c. shall be entitled to On the 19th September, (see page 186,) the above amendment being under consid- eration, which had been supported and op- posed by varivus gentlemen, Mr. Clarke said: ** | am unwilling to retain the word white, because its retention is repugnant to all the principles and notions of liberty to which we have heretofore professed to adhere, and to our Declaration of I:depen- dence. which is a concise and just expose of those principles.

A proviso was subsequently offered by purpose of preventing the strolling colored gentleman from coming over frem other States and voting, such as our runaway slaves from the South. eration, see page 364, Mr. Birdseye moved tu amend the first line of the section which read, every male citizen of the age uf 21 years, by inserting after the word ‘‘every” the word ** free’? which was lost. Mr. Brigys then moved to amend in the same place by inserting in the word * white,” which bad been before struck out.—Chan- cellor Kent opposed the motion. It was true, he said, that the blacks were in some respects, a degraded portion of the commu- nity, but he was unwilling to see them dis- frauchised, and the door eternally barred a- gainst them. Then comes Van Buren, and what says he, hearhim: Mr. Van Buren * said he wus im favor of the plan proposed by the select gummiscee, and opposed tu the amend ment,” which was to reinsert the word * White,’ see-same page 364 Mr. Van Buren again—see page 368, in concluding some remarks, said: ‘He thought the committee, constituted as they were, had cone themselves great credit, by iheir coucession to the opinion of those frou whom they differed, and he for one, re‘urned them his sincere thanks. Under all circumstances he would be well satisfied with the right of suffrage, as it will svon be es ablished, and would give it his zealous support as well ui his capacity of delegate as that of citizen. Again see page 476. Mr. Van Buren said ‘*he had voted against a total and un- qualified exclusion (of the blacks,) for he would not draw a revenue from them and vetdeny them the right of suffrage. But this proviso met his approbation. They were exempt from taralion, until they had qualified themselves t) vote.—The right out inducements to industry ; and would se- cure his support.”’ We the undersigred have compared the foregoing extracts with the published pro- ceedings of the Debates of the New York Convention, and find them truly and accu- rately copied.

Take for illustration the case of a small planter in Mississippi, living on bis own land with thirty slaves to cultivate it.— Suddenly it is discovered that one half of them is concerned in a plot to destroy the lives of their master, his family, and neighbors, with a view to produce their freedom, and immediately with or withoat law they are tucked up and hanged. The man 1s thus deprived of his Property with- out any chance for an indemnity, besides the disquiet and anxiety of mind occasion- ed by a loss of confidence in his remaining slaves. It cannot have been intended that Congress by acting on this subject, shoald have @ power thus to occasion a destruction of slave property. “Lo me it seems that we ought to treat these peutions precisely a8 we would do, if ‘they prayed us to abolish slavery in one of ; he States. We have no m | ore power to a- bolish it here than we have there. I think in either case we ought to refuse {$0 receive them. I hold thatif the petition- ers sek us to do that which we have no | power to do, or to do that which will be productive of a great and lasting mischief, we not only have the right, but that it is our duty to refuse to receive them. ‘Congress sits here as the Legislature of the whole Union, and also as the only Le- gislature for the local concerns of the Dis- trict of Columbia. These petitions do aot ask usto make a general law, operatin throughout the whole Union: but a law,the operations of which are tobe spent entire- ly upon the property of the ten miles square. Now if we are in form, as well es in sub- stance, a local Legislature when acting on this question, which gentlemen say is to af- fect slavery in the District, and no where- else, would we be bound to receive these petitions? No more than we are bound to receive these petitions from Franee or Get- many.—Would gentdemen, if silting as members of the Legisiature of Alabama, feel bound to receive petiffons from citizens of Maine or Pennsylvania to emancipate slaves within their own State? Assuredly not. If that be so, is it not most reasonable, wher we are called upon to pass an act confined exclusively to this District, that we should conduct towards the people here, as if in this matter they were our constituents?

Fan- ning’s advance guard of 23 :nen was cut off , he fought aatil late in the evening, with a small loss, the Mexicans having 190 killed and a great many wounded. Fanning succeeded in en- trenching his forces by falling back ta the prai- ries. In the morning the Mexicans preseated a white flag. Terms of capitulation were held vot, Fanning was told that his numbers were known—that he was withoot water—and that if he would lay down his arms and fight no mre. he and his men should be forthwith seat to New Orleans. ‘The terns were accepted. Fanning and hi? men remained at Fort Goliad 6 or 8 days. Ou the 9h, they were ordered to march to Co- pano to take a vessei for New Orleans. After proceeding abont five miles, with a large number of Mexicans on either side, the fatter were or- dered to fre upon the Texians. “Phe order was obeyed, and every man was killed with the ex- ception of the foar above alluded tu, who io the terrible scene, succeeded in getting into the grass and making their escape.

You have perhaps: heard of the storming of St. Antonio, and maesacre of the Texian garrison. Ail with- out an exception perished, save a wouinan and 2 negroes. Davy Crockett was among | the number. He had fully sustained his great character for intrepidity, during an un- successful attempt of the enemy to storm the Alamo. just one week before the masza- cre. A short time previous to this, a party of sixty or seventy under Col. Johnson. were cut off, save four, Jobn Love was a- mong the number who escaped ~ Renben Brown fell here, and-young Mitchell fell in the Alamo. ‘The taking of the Alamo was followed by the retreat of the main army from Gonzales, and by the extermination of Fannin’s regiment, 50i) strong. Major Ward, and the Georgia Battalion (Capt, Wadsworth’s company included) had been detached by Col. Fannin, then at Ba- bra, to protect some families who were fly- ing from the enemy;when they were attack- ed, and after fighting tetreating for nearly two deys, were at length overpowered by nunrbers., and all put to the sword, but five who escaped, and only twoof them Geor- gians; one Richard Rutledge, formerly of Colginbus, and the other David {. Holt. In the meen time Fannin had received orders to abandon the fortress of La Babia, which he immediately executed and re- turned towards the main army with the balance of his troops, 8360 men, and seven pieces of artillery, where they were attack- ed in an open praine by a large Mexican force, mostly cavalry.

How legally offered thecommitiee do not state nor is there any proof that these votes were legally tendered, Mr. Hammer of Ohio bere rose to a point of order. He uaderstood there were two motions before the House: one to fix a day for the consideration of the report.& the other,a Motion to recommit the report tothe com— mittee, with leave to the parties to take fur- ther testimony. His question of order was this, whether upon a wotiva to recomimit to & COmm:tiee, It was in erder to discuss the proposition,whether the com-nittee had cur- rectly stated the facts already lad befure them, of drawn proper deductions from these facts Mr. Hardin, of Kentucky, sta- ted that there was nothing stronger in fa- vor of recommitting the report tu the corm- | Miltee, than to show that the committee had ' misstated both the law and the facts, on the subject The chair stated, that to discuss the mer- its of the main question upon this contested election, would not be in order, at this stage of the proceeding, He had, however, not arrested the gentleman’s remarks, because others had gone somewhat into the merits of the question, and the chair now found some difficulty in restraining the gentle- man from North Carolina. ‘Ihe debate bad 4 come now, The committee say, that Robert Hall i taken a wide range; but he hoped the gea- swears dk was customary to make such ex-/tleman would cuntine himself to remarks that would be in order. Mr. Rencher stated, that he well knew his rewarks would not be very acceptable in the dasirict, but notwithstanding this cus- tom,the commnitee have rejected such votes, and as | have heretofore shown, properly rejected them.

Mr. Rencher continued. The Report states that 5 votes had beeu legally offered, & ille- galiy refused, How legally offered? Thelaw of North Carolina bas prescribed the mode by which a vote shall be legally offered. In that state when a vote is objected to, the voter is requued by law to swear, ‘that he 1s qualified to vote under the constitu- tion, wad that be hath not voted before at such election”? We are to presume that the sworn officers of the law did their duty, unless the contrary appear. Is there any evidence here that these judges did not do their duty, or that these voters offered to qoalifv, as the law directs? Not the slight- est particle: and although the report asserts, that these votes were legally offered the as- sertion is made without any evidence to jus- tty it.and without giving to the house the law of North Carolina, by which a voter is reqmred, if bis vote be objected to, to swear. both to his qualification, and that he has not voted before at such election. The judges have aright to require, and do re- quire this oath ofevery voter whose vote is objected te, and if be refuse to qualify, he loses his elective franchise and has no nght to vote. However competent such a vo- ter may be.he loses his right by refusing to comply with the requisitionso tthe law. But there is to evidence that these five votes, which the committee say were legally offered and illega'ly refused, were qualified votes, but on the contsary there is positive proof, that three of these voters were not quali- fied to vote and therefore properly refused. We have the deposition of three of these men, and they swear that neither of them had resided in the county twelve months lv fore the election, which [have shown is indispensible to enable a free man to vote under the constitution of North Carolina. ‘The commiitee assert that these votes were legally offered and illegally refused; while there 1s no proof that they were le- gally offered. ang positive proof that they were legally & properly refused. And how is the other two votes proven to have been legal votes? Not by the oath of the voters theansclves. but by the ex-parte affidavit of a near relative of the petitioner. And will the House give more weight to such an af— fidavit, then to the solemo judgment of jodges appointed by law and acting uoder the selemnity of an oath? Is the House prepared upon such aa affidavit to say, that these votes were legally ofered, and illegal- ly refused by the judges. The committee say, that these five voters were qualified to vote, and therefore illegally refused, while the judges decided under oath that they were not qualified, and refused their votes. When we look into the proof, three of them seear to facts which show they were, not qualified; while the only evidence sistent, most have done it. isut what have they dune? Strange totell,the committee have restored these three votes, and have count. ed them for the petitione:!’ Can the House you have of the qualification of the other two. is the ex-parte evidence of a near tela- tive of the pet.tiener. 1 have dwelt upon this point to show, sanction such glaring inconsistency, such palpable injustice to the sitting member, as! well as to the people of the twelfth con. ; Ediwis of either Nawepaper at this letters, pust paid, will be prumpuy attended to. aed | gressionel duane? If such should be the. case, and I have reason to fear 4 may be, let that these votes were properly rejected, and that the commitiee have ee ae outany proof to justify it,that they were - gally Ofiered ds iflegaly refusec. At a prope: time, and when such s discussion will be in pretended. The .j aot, only. acted ae: but the, is ¢lear has they properly. pees Mr. Speaker, L done with this re- port. T regret that my daty has compelled me to say thus ach, of in Many. othe points of objection, I have left unnoticer, for from begining so end this whale doca- ment is nothing but a tissue of mistatc- ments and misrepresentations, ‘not inter~ tional I admit, but which are well ealculs- ted to mislead the public mind. [t doubt- less has, and will mislead many honest vo- ters in the twelfth congressional district, ine to which I am told a large number obtained: from our public printer, was sent many days before it was laid upon our tables, But here, with the law and the facts before us, I am determined it shall mislead no one unless he be willingly misled. 1 trust therefore that this whole subject wiil be re-commitied to the committee, that we. may have such a report as will enable us to decide this controversy im partially. ‘The gentleman from Kentucky, (Mr. Boyd,) appears impatient to hu this house into a premature decision of this case. He declares that we tan decade it in a single hour. ‘Though it has cost him. and the committee between two and three months of assiduous labour to enable him to cecide it, he thinks this house ought to decide in one hour! Let me tell the zen- tieman, that although there may be sume who are willing to take the gendeman’s report upon faith, and reject the sitting member without even an hour’s examina- tion, yet there are others, and, | hope, a large majority of this house, who wish to examine this Jarge volume of evi- dence for themselves and who wish to decide this case upon the eternal principles. of truth and justice, and not under the in-. fluence of party dictation. I regret that the gentleman from New York, (Mr. Van-. derpoel) should have announced bis dee termination, not to give us time te exe amine this subject—He too can deciie it in a single hour. Let me remind the gentleman of his own er feroce upon. contested elections. At the last Congress the gentleman was a member of the come mittee of elections, and examined the case of Moore and Letcher, for six months. He came to a clear conclusion iu favour of Moore, and so reported. But the House upon examination of the evidence decided that Letcher had a majority of the legal votes. Suddenly the gentleman became bewildered—his intellect became ; ed, and he then declared, for his life he coule not tell which was entitled to his seat, and therefore voted to send it back to the people! The gentleman's own expe- rience should make him a little more dis- trustful of his ability to decide contested e- lections. ‘hen after six month's examina- tion, he reversed his own decision, and de. . cided that he could not decide, but now he . can decide a question equally complicated in one hour! What,let me ask has so whet. ted the gentleman’s mental faculties ? What has made this child of doubt and of dark- ness on vesterday,to-day an intellectual gi-. ant! But though he has so increased in intellectual strength, and can now decide this case in a single hour, yet I trust he will show some indulgence towards others, who have not been so fortunate, and give them time to examine aud decide for them- selves, Mr. Speaker, 1n the eourse of this debate frequent allusion has been made to party, and the politics of the two gentlemen. For the sitting member, I have great personal respect. ‘The able and independent man- ner in which he has diseharged his publie duties, anc his correct and amiable deport- ment in private life must have secured him the respect and esteem of all who know him. But upon this subject, I feel that I am acting under the obligations of en vath, and I am determined to know no party, except my country, and to yield to no feeling, except truth ard justice. But why should I cherish any party feeling? I trust I have no cause to do so. Both these gentlemen when before the people held the same political sentiments I do, upon the all absorbing question that now agitates this country, from one extreme to the oth- er. They both avowed a personal prefer- ence for Juuge White, for the next presi- dency. They both hoisted his flag which has been truly said to be a flag without s stain. I hepe neither of them has pulled down that flag, and abandoned the priaci- ples he held before the people. It is tree, I have heard the petitioner has deserted that flag, and given in his adhesion to Ven Bu- ren; but I do not know the fact to be so, | I hope it is not so, and thatthe gentle man will contradict a report so unfavorable: to his political integrity. Anxious and am- bitions as he may be, to obtain & seat upor | this floor (and it is worthy of ambition) {§ hope he will never consent to do so,by bar- iering away his own political principles, and the political rights of a free, i ent, and gcacrone people.

We vrcceived last evening a slip from the office of the Columtia Times & Gazette, containing one letter frou Florida, dated Fort Brooke, Tampa Bay, 13th inst. giving the details of the march of Gen. Eustis’ command, from which we give the tullow- ing summary: ‘Vbearwy saw no Indians until they reached the river Ocklawaka, 30 wiles from Volusia, when fires were discovered on the opposite, side. Col, BUTLER, with his batallion, crossed. and after going about three miles, four Indians were discovered and pursued by the advance guard. Gen, Jos. SHEL- Ton was of Butcen’s party. He charged ahead of the advance guard upon one ot tbe ladiaus who had separated 1 the race fromthe others. When within 23° steps of the fudian, sheltonlevelled bis gun —the Indian turned and presented his rifle at the General—Shetton fired first, and put six buck shot into the neck of the savage, who, being evidently mortally wounded, turned and bobbled off. Shelton fiudiag no cap on the tube of the other barrel of bis gun. dropped it, drew a pistol, advanced to with in five or six feet of the Indian, and snap- ped at his breast; at this moment the Indian brought his rifle nearly to bis shoulder and shot Shelton in the bip, just above the inp boue, the ball passing obliquely through, was cut out from the opposite side near the back bone. At this time Mr. Gibson, of the Fairfield troop, came upand discharged the contents of bis musket in the back of the Indian, who was brought to bis knees by the effect of Shelton’s sbot. Shelton was badly wounded, but | am happy to say, is fast recovering. te leaves tu day for Pensacola. ‘The Indian killed was recog- uized by the voluateers from St. Augustine, aud the guides as Ko- ho-ha-jo, (in our lan- guage signifying Afad Wolf) acinef of dis- Unction and influence, of the Micanopy tribe, sho commanded, it is said, 45 or 50 warriors, Ko ho-ha jo visited St. Ausgus- {ins and the sugar plantations in East Fior- ida, in company with Abraham, a negro;and is believed, was at that time engaged 10 ef- fecting ajunction with the negroes now un- derarms. His name isl.kewise distinguish- ed by being aifixed, in coinpany with the principal chiefs of the nauon, to a treaty with the Government. The next day Cols Goodwyn and Butler, with a Battalion of field, Indians were'discovesed seated around the.fire; they 1mmediately rejreated back .3- bout 200 yards to-encthes hammock, and a skicmish of about twenty: minutes: contins- “ance took place; in which one U. 8. seldicr wasbadly wounded ‘ic the jaw, and it was supposed anumber of Indians killed. ‘Oo the day after the skirmish the troops reach- ed Pilaklikaha, and burned at. Jt bed been abandoned appar months. - ently, for several Col. Lindsay, erected a fort, about 22 miles from Tampa, and gatrisoned it wrth 70 or 80 men, under Capt. Marks. This Fort was attacked on the 27th ult. by a- bout 200 Indiaas,. who continued the as- sault for two- bonrs, after which they retreat- ed. One of Marks men was caughit outside the pickets, butchered and scalped, and one person wounded inside. It issaid 12 or 15 ludians were killed. =~ The letter says: ‘Another movement wit! be made to.mor- row. A mixed Indian, half Spansard,. half | Seminole, was brought ina prisoner the other day by Capt. Green of the U. S. Cut- ter Dallas; this fellow was captured by friendly Spaniards on the coust near Char- lotte’s Harbor. He was interrogated by an interpreter, and he confessed that the wo- men and children, plunder, and negroes, of the Indians were concentrated at the head of Pea Creek, within ten miles, of Char- lott’s Harbor. Gen Scott haa tlfought 1 advisable to actupon this information. The Spaniard has been taken around Charlott’s Harbor in the Cutter—three or four hun- dred of the Louisiana troops have been sent by water. ‘To-morrow morning the S. C. troops will take up the line oF march, with six days provisions on their backs, and two vushels corn on their horses, fur Pea Creek,. which by land, 1s distant 30 or 40 miles from this place. The Spamard has promis- ed to conduct the troops to the camp of the enemy. If heis to be relied on, and the Indians are unwary we may strike the fin- ishing blow yet. The S. C. troops will continue thei march from Pea Creek to Volusia, and then, or at Picolata, to be discharged. The measles continue to prevail. Lieuts Donglass and iJemphill,aid three of four o- others of Elmores company, will be dis charged here, and will leave for ho.neim the fist boat going to Mobile.

When it is remembered that the direct aim and avowed object of destroying the district system was to give the whole electoral vote of the State to the Republi- cancancidate, Mr. Madison, (which would otherwise have been divided and a part of it given tothe Federal candidate) it is a little singular that such an objection should come from a party that professes to be the true Democratic Republicans of the Old School. that in an obituary notice of the late Mr. Joseph Wilson, known to have come from the pen of the Honorable Romulus Saun- cers, the leaderof the Van Buren party in this State, and God-father to the immacnu- late Peruvian, great credit is attributed to the deceased for his manly and straight-for- ward course in avewing the nhjort of al tering the electoral law to be, to secure the ascendancy of the Republican party : We are old enorgh to remember that. the measure was hailed as a glonons achieve- mentin the Republican Legislature, and We remember a few years ago, met the hearty concurrence of the party throuzhont But how t ings What in olden time was the State; have chanaed ! glorions Republicunism, is now treason to Lie pearls, In 1829 and °89, the Prosident.

Brigadier General Eustis came in with half of the left wing the | same day, and Culone! Lindsay, who cummands | the centre, the day befure. ‘This approximation of the greater parts of the three culuinns was the result of no particular instructions. Fach found itself compelled to come in for subsistence. It will be seen that, alihouzh no general bat- | tle has been fought, many combats and sharp af- fairs have taken place: The report states that, so far from the enemy having been beateu, and compelled to sue for peace, on the contrary, “the small parties which have been met with, almost every where, have fiercely resisted unul put ia danger of tbe bayu- pet. ‘The war, on our part, is, in fact, scarcely begnn,’’ ‘The report further states that the horses, draught, pack, and saddle, were much reduced — bad state of the roads, hut weather, great luads, and indifferent grazing. Sickness (ie measles and mamps) has cunsiderably reduced the effee- live furce. ‘The General states that Colonel Smith, with his Louisiana regiment, was abuut to proceed to Charivite’s harbour and Pear creek. ‘here he is tu be juined,by a naval officer, and, proceeding up the creek, land on the left bank. On the 14th April, Colonel Goodwin's mounted South Cerna vutunteers (five fandred strung) were to mareh from ‘Tampa Bay for the upper part of Pear creek, followed by the foot uf General Eus lis’s wing. ‘The cbj-ct of the combined move- went is ‘to strike al tiie nezrues, women, children and warriors, who have settlements on the upper and Juwer part of thecreek, and who are nuw in Security, supposed tu be engaged ia planting,fish- ing,and honting.? Colonel Lindsay, with a battalion of United States artillery, a company uf Georgia, mounted men, the Alabama regiment, and an indepen- deat coupany of Louisiana volunteers, is, at the same tine, to march oorthwardly in pyrsuit of the Indians, as alsu General Clinch, with, his coummiuid, both by different routes.

April 384, 19861249 DAVID KERNS, DR. PETERS’ Segetable Anti=Bilious PBtlls Are the cheapest and most approved PAMILY ME.DICENE ever offered tu the Public. They are extremely mild in their operation, neither causing sickness of the stomach, nor any un- pleasant sensation in the system, as is tuo fre- quently the result trom medicine given to act upon the bowels. They act specifically upon the Liver, when in a torpid coudition, carrying off a large quantity of bile, through the influence off the excernent function, which, if suffaled to rewnain in the system, would prodace either Jaun- dice, Liver Complaiat. Bilious Fever, Fever and Aygue, or some viher grievous budily affliction. In all cases of torpor of the bowels, they act like acharm. In recent cases of Dyspepsia, they are acertain cure. Many persons who were subjeet to violent attacks of sick head-ache, have been much benefitted, and several perfectly cur- ed in a few weeks by theiruse. They are highly recommended as a preventive and cure of Gilious complainis. Persuns whe are subject to that distressing complaint, sea-sickness, by taking a portion or two of them a few days previous to embarking on board the vessel, will be almost certain to escape it. Females canuse them at all periods, witheut incorring any risk. Persons guing to sea, or toa southern climate, shoald by all means take some of these Pills with themn.— ‘Their virtues will remain unimpaired for years inany climate. Nofamily should be without these Pills ; a portion of them, takea vecasional ly. would be the means of preventing much suf fesing trom sickness. [tis from neglect of kegp ing up a regular peristaltic action uf the stomach and bowels, thus suffering tu be absorbed and mingled with the bloud, anassimilated fluids, that must diseases are produced. Dr. P. feels confident that no person who gives these Pills a fair trial, will eves atier feel willing to be with- volt them. ‘The testimony of thousands speak- ng in the highest terms of their efeacy, mighs be addec, butthe very high repotation Dr. P. has acquired as the inventor of the ** Patent Vegetuble Medicine Slomachice et Hepatice,” for the care of Dyspepsia and Liver evmplaiuts, ig thought a sufficient guarantee to those wish- ing toumake a trial of their virtues. ‘They con- tain not a particle of Mereury.or any ingredie:t that does not act in harmony with health and op- pose disease, , Dr. P. wishes it distinctly anderstond, that these Pills pussess beneficial quali ies indepen- dent of their purgative effects ; thev are beth tu nic and deobstruent, acting upon the secreting and exhalent functions ; thos strengihening the patient, while they remove obstructions -— Medicines which possess no other, excepting ca thartie qualities, debilitate the patient, and their repeited use lays the foundation of a jung cata lugue ot Chronic diseases. Dr. PB. having been educated under the most eminent American and European Medical pro fessors, and praciiced his profession many vears in the South, where diseases of the most obs nate character prevail, considers himeelt well qualified to judge on the nature of diseases” istct- dent to wari climates.

Health, also, at a table sat, Dining upon a ham: But appetite demanded yet A cabbage and a clam. Wealth sat entbrored upon a green And fragrant load of hay; And Happiness compelled a dog Behind tbe cart to play. Delight was chasing butterflies, With Lavghter and with Joy ; Affection gazed with ardeut eyes Upon the sweet employ. Beauty was watering flowers Beside the cottage fluor : And pleasure spoke about a tour ‘To Mr. Staple’s store. Justice bid good morrow, and Invited me to tea; But Jolly bid me stay away, Unless I came with glee. Patience sat in any easy chair, Unravelling a skein; While Mirth, with roguish eye, and air, Would tangle it again. Benevolence had built a tower Of pudding, bread and mest, And bid Compassion take it Wer ‘To Want, across the street. But | was gratified to sea Easy, ane free, and fair, With innocence upon tis knee, Old satisfaction there.

Whenever | to jest am prone, They tell me | am Jo-King! Though fat Iam, as any bull, With aptitude lor sinking; If J by chance seem rather dull, They swear that lam Thin King, In figure I am short and squat, Yet if with ladies walking, J Jangb and chatter, and ‘all that,’ ‘They vow that am Tall-King! At night they do admit my claim; W hen Sol to rest is sinking; They call me by my proper name, And real'y fied me Wynne King! FOS Oe A beautiful reflection.—It cannot he that earth is man’s abiding. Jt cannot be that our life is cast up by the ocean of eternity to fluata inoment upon iis waves and into aothingness.— Else why isitthat the bizh and glorivus aspira tions which leap like angels from the temple of our heart are forever wandering abuat ansatis- fied? Whyisitthat the rainbow and cloud come over us with abeauty that ie not of earth, and then off and leave us ts muse upon their taded loveliness ? Why is it that the stars who hold their “ festival around the midnight thrune, are set above the grasp uf our faculties, furever mocking us with their unapproschable glory !— And finally, why is it that brighter forms of hu- man beauty are presented to our view, and then taken from as, leaving the thousand streams of our affections to flow back ia alpine torrents ap- on oor hearts? We are burn fur a higher desti- ny than that of earth ; thereis a reakn where the rainbow never fades; where the stars will be spread vu: befure us, like island that slumber which here pass before us like shadows will \h remember this, stay in car pressnce furever.

Ja the course of the ensuing summer, intelligence was received in this country thet the French Chambers, or Legislative Assembly, had passed a law appropriating the money re- quired to fulfil the treaty; but annexed a conaition that explanations should be given by the Executive of the United States, of certain cxpressions used in his message to Congress, of December, 1884; and espe- cially of the part in which he recommended that the government of the United States should adopt ‘reprisals, as a suitable and proper measure of retributive justice against France. It is difficnh to perceive why this condition should be thought to interpose insuperable obstacles to a final and satisfac- tory adjustment of all the points ia contes- tation between the two countries. Theex- planations required by the law of the French Chambers had been substantially given by our minister, Mr, Livingston, when the message was first received at Paris ; & it was now necessary for the president only to say, that his intentions had been correctly ex- pounded. A single conciliatory word of this kind, rendering the explanations of our minister more formal and clear, would have reqoved all difficulty,and the money would have been promptly paid. No scruples on the subject were entertained in 1880—$1, when our mimster, Mr. Rives, gave to the French Government all the explanations re- quired of certain exprescions contained in the President’s message, of December, 1829, If it was right, at that time,to ex plain to Charles the Tenth. a legitenate, and, in many respects.an absolute monarch, it certaiuly could not be wrong, in 1835, to explain to the present ruler of France who came into power according to the forms of awritten & in inany respectsef a free eons: titution;who was more the (rend and advo cate ofliberty than any of his predecessors.& who had been the first smong them all. to acknowledge the validity. of our elaiuns The French minister in cons qnence of the messav:e of December 1834, had been with- drawn froin the United States; and Vr. Live ingston had returned From France, in pur- snance of directions given him, to leave that country in case the law for the fulfil- ment of the treaty snould not be passed The affiurs of the two countries were thus brought to a most ertical posture, requir. ing only a spark to light upthe fame of war between them. It would be useless, perbaps, to trace the controversy through its subsequent. stages to the meetihg of Congress, at the begin- ning of the present session — Instead of an effort to avoid war, there appeared to have existed a disposition to provoke it. Cie cumstances, trivtal in themselves, were se'z- edt upon as it to aggravate the causes of dis- agreement, and to excite still greater irri- tation, ‘The languave of newspapers and public meetings through the country, alsa, had an evident tendency through that way. To tovolve the nation in war ona point of etiquette merely, was repugnant to the feel ings of humanity and the dictates of wis- dom; bat vet we were placed in a situation from which it was difficult toadvance or re- cede, Such was the state of things when the President delivered bis) annual message to Congress. on the 8th day of December Jast. Alter recapitulating at great length the vari- ous points in dispute, he stated that ‘il was not his intention to menace or insult the Government of France,’ in the Measage of 1884. On receiving this cssurance. the Frencl, Government were sati-fied, and have ordered the money to be paid. In looking back on these transactions, it is impossible J think, not to feel emotions of gratitude to the Seuate of the United States, for the wisdom, dignity and firuness which marked their proceedings. ilad they yielded to the recornmendation of reprisals in 1834, it is reasonable to suppose the House of Representatives wonld have con- curred; and at this moment, tn all probabil- ity. we should be engaged in war, instea:! of being surrounced by these blessings of peace. An approved writer on the law of nations says: “Those who rush to arms without necessity are the sconrges of the human tace, barbanans, enemies to society, and rebellious violators of the laws of na- ture, or rather the laws of the common Fa- ther of mankind *® ‘The fact that our con- troversy with France bas been amicably setued, proves that war would have been unnecessary; and if we had plunged the country into it, we should have ween re- proached by the civilyed world in terms like those above recited. kk will always redound to the credit of Great Britain, that she interposed as media- tor between France and the United States; that her good officers were accepted by both governments; but before they could be rendered effective, France became satisfied with the explanations in the M. deliv- ered to ia December. But why, I ask, should France and the United States cver £0 to war? aL were friends and al- tes during our revolutioner.

It will not go into the Treasury of the nation, bat iato the pockets of individnals,without conferring any benefit on the aggregate mass of the commu- nity. It may also be worthy of remark, that our board of commissioners, who were to decide upon the amount and validity of each claim, did not bring their laborsto a close tll this spring; that the money could not have been paid over to the individuals en- titled to receive it, even if the Freneh gov- ernment had appropriated it without delay. In every view of the case, then, a war was to be deprecated as unwise ,unnecessary.and inexpedient; and | am rejoiced toknow,that we have escaped from it, with all its con- comitant horrors Peace being thus restored, and there be- ing not the least prospect of collision with any other civilized power on earth, it would seem to be the duty of the United States, to examine well our internal condition, and see what measure ought to be adopted for the good of the several states. The sur- plus in the Treasury amounts to about thirty five millions of dollars, a considera- ble portion of which has been derived from the sale of public lands. The states have aright to demand this part of the surplus. ag clearly as an individual citizen would have to demand any property to which bis title was indisputable. A sufficient balance would be left in the Treasury forall the pur- pose of national defence, after dividing a- mong the states what properly belongs tu them. Bat,instead of pursuing this course. dictated both by justice and sound policy, many of these who are concerned in the administration of the general government, seem disposed, thus far, to resist every mea- sure which has a tendency to divide th: surplus among the states. The excuse is. that all the money must be appropriated to the building of ships, fortifications, &c. This is utterly repugnant to every principle as well as tothe nniform practice of the government since its foundation, to the present time. If all the money were to be approprated, it could not be usefully or profitably expended. In proof of this, 1 is only necessary to state, that of the usual and ordinary appropriations heretofore wade, there are eight ailhons unexpended in th: ‘Vressury. How then would it be possible to absorn the eatracrdinary sums now cat!- ed for, if eight milhous of the former ap- propriations remain on hand, as unexpes ded balance? Either the Executive officers must have heen delingnent in the perform ance of their duty; they must have been veyhgent in prosecuung the vroua branch- es of pubdhe service, or the money hereto- forg veted for that purpose, must have been more than sufficient. This conclusion can- not le avoided or resisted. Bat again: If the amount of a particular kind of labor in the country will require only a certain sum ef money to employ it, the price of that labor will be enhanced in aratio with the Increase of money. In this way the govern- ment would derive very litle. if any advan- tuge whatever, from increased appropria— tions No more work would be done, bat a double prd@@Would be paid for it, one ship, oF One fortifieation would cost perhaps as much as two ships, or two fortifications would hayA@one,befure the increase uf mo- ney int arket From 1816 to 1836, we have expended about fourteen millions of dollars oa tort A cations, & for the increase & repairs of the navy, upwards of twenty-two millions, The wtrole uilitary establiahinent has cost, in that time, upwards of one hundied an | tuurty-three milltons; and the whole navai establishment has cost nearly sixty seven millions, At tins cate | am willing to pro- ceed in future disbursements; but I cannot see upun what principle it is that approptia- tions of the public money 80 much greater than have heretoforebeen :nace,should vow be demanded by any one who looks with a single eye to the good of the nation. ‘To waste @oney because we have it, would be as profligate and censurable in a govern- ment, asinan individual.

For the last seven years, | haveseeo the growing importance of this quesiion,§ have never failed to call your attentioa to it by every means in my power.

Of this character is the bill now before Gongress, which proposes ‘to gradu- ale the price of the pulic lanis; to make provision for actual set‘lers, and to cede the refuse lunds to the stutes in which they lie? ‘Phe title of a bill 13 always under- stood tu declare its object, but in this case we are not iolda word about reducing the price of lands, nor about ceding those which are valuable to the new States.

After five years shall have elapsed, the gales in the mean time having been obstructed in the manner pointe. out, the lands are to be ceded in full property to the new States; the President is directed to close all the land offices, and thus to put an-end fieally to the whole business. Such is the sweet morsel which the old a res t the | those: bas ab ase Sitssss-,/,-,-_ eee ee 5 44-— WHOLE NO. 200 in a few years, and then our farmers, ta- king charge of their own produce, @ leave Wilkesborough or Statesville, auchim places. ‘The au reese like this are inceleulstie, and the old tates ought to be fired with i at the attempts made bv as seu Geese take away all the land, and deprive them @ the means necessary to construct. such works. The new States are prolife e nough in schemes for their own improve- ment, At this momenta bill is before Cone greas authorizing the construction of a rail- road three or four hundred miles through the public lands in the State of Illinois, and granting to the company. e al- ternate section of land, at the minimum price, along the whole distance. The pow- erful and effcetive aid is thus given to al- most every project in the new Siates, while the claims of the old States, foan- ded in right and justice, are denied. Sia- ilar projects for improving the rest of the new States and the Territories, have been submitte/, and considered, I believe, with more or less favour in every instance. If the new States expected to act in faith, they would not oppose the land bill, because the price would be just the same to them, whether the proceeds are divided among all the States, or remain in the Treasury. ‘Their opposition to the meas ure proves that they expect, at no distant day, to get the whole ofthe land. Did they, for example, object to the bill of 1833, which proposed to give them twelve and a half per cent more than to the old States, because it was too little or too much for them to receive ? Why, certainly, because they thought it too little; and the hope of getting more must have been the sole cause of their opposition to the bill. ‘The old States, by opposing it also on that ground, acted precisely as the new States would have wished them to do, and contributed to give effect to their designs of finally get- ting possssion of all the land. After this mannet it was that the old States have been accessaries in the wrong done to themselves—have been instrumental ia working their own injury. But this twelve-and-a-half per cen‘. to the new States is not without some reason to support it. ‘hey have a greater increase of population than the old States, and ac- cording to the rule laid down in the deeds of cession, this advance of twelve-and-a- half per cent. to the new States was thought by many to be strictly just and right, be- cause it was pruportionate to the greater increase in the number of their inhabitants. Whether it was so-or not, one thing is evi- dent, that ‘*halfa loaf is better than uo bread.’’ I should therefore contend, that it was much wiser policy in the old States, inuch more to their interest, to take seven- eights of the proceeds of the lands, than to encounter the risk, nay, absolute certaidty, of losing the whole ; provided we do not agree to that distribution. A million of dollars this year, a million next year, and a million perhaps for everv year afierwards through a Jong succession of ages, would enable North Carolina to accomplish eve- ry thing she could desirein the way of rail-roads and canals, or the establishment of fiee schools. Even the half, or a third, or a fourth, in this view of the case, would be better than nothing atall. In this opin- ion fellow citizens, I am persuaded you will fully concur. The new states further allege that the lands which they ask us to grant them, is ‘* refuse land,”’ and of little or no value. Now it is very strange indeed, they should want the land, if it is worth nothing. —The States are asked to swallow, for the benefit ofthe new! Ihave been somewhat para ticular in describing it, that you might see more distinctly and appreciate more fully the enormous injustice of its several enact- ments. But yet the advocates of the meas- | ure, furgetting the constitution of the coun- try. unmindful of the compacts and treaties with the old States, from whom the land was required by gratuitous cession, re- gardless of the claims of equity and good faith, seem to preserve as if they were en- yaged ina meriturious work. ‘They al- lege that the executive is in favor of their, scheme. But befure this argument can be allowed to have weight with a virtuous, independent people, who have knowledge to | perceive and intelligence to pursue their own interest, it must be proved that the scheme itself is right ; that it is essentially just and proper. Until this shall have been done, the option of no individual, wheth- er he be high or low, ought to be regard - ed as authority. ‘The objection to the lane | bill, in the Veto Message of 1833, was | that it proposed to give twelve-and-a-half per cent. to the new States.

There is already a rail-road from Peters- burgh in Virginia to the Roanoke river. There is one building from the Roanoke ‘to the city of Raleigh. Now if we could ‘receive a miflion of dollars in May. and another million probably in the course of next year, we should have funds sufficient | to construct a rail-road leading from Rok | eigh through the centre of the State to the mountains.

J contend that it is im- mensely so, for it yielded Jast year, more than fifteen millions of dollars, and wil! probably yield the same or a greater a- mount for many vears tocome. Neither is it ** refuse land,’’ in the sense in which they use that term. Before any thinz can be called ‘ refuse’’ it must be wanted, it must he seen, examined and pecees as unworthy of being taken. In this sense there is scarcely a foot of land throughout our vast extended domain, which can be called ** refuse.’” The reason it has not been taken and used is, that we have sur- veyed and offerec to sell more of it, than can be purchased or occupied by the num- It ap- pears from a report made to congress, in 1834, that there are upwards of thirty-five miilions of acres in the state of Illinois, of which something more than two millions only had been sold at that time. In Mis souri, there were opwards of thirty-nine inillions of acres, of which not two millions had been sold. It is then an abuse of Jan- guage, to say that all the land which had not been sold in these two states, amount- ing to about seventy millions of acres, was ‘* refuse’’ and of no value. Much injury has been done to the pub- lic lands, by the operation of what are cal- led * pre-emption Jaws.” These laws give At this time, when rail-roads and canals | to actual setters a prior rigitto purchase the lands at the lowest price, to the exelu- | sion of all other persons. Hence the pub- lic sales, which is the fairest mode of dis- posing of the lands, are estoped, or effect- ually superceded in every instance, where | pre-emption rights ohiain. Lands, worth | five, ten, fifieen or twenty dollars an acre, | are thus permitted to be taken up, and ap- | propriated by settlers at one dollar and ‘twenty five cents per acre. The govern- | ment, or which is the same, thing all the rest of the people of the United States, sre greatly injured by disposing of she land in this manner ; and it is difficult to perceive twenty-four or thirty-six hours’ travel, am ~ °c a _———————————— why settlers should be vo much the objects of preference and favor, when in fact they re intruders ‘upon the land, having one there in express violation of the laws of the country. But however meritorious this class of persons may be, the laws which have eee passed for their benefit have been abused, and the most infamous fraads have practiced upon the government. / Speculators are said to have hired certain persons, to go all through the public aie ; To select the most valuable tracts : to clear away a few trees and busbes on each tract: to plant perhaps @ dozen hills of corn and potatoes ; or sow 2 turnip patch, probably not more than ten feet square, and then claim the benefit of the pre-emption laws, by swearing that they have made actual settlements: In this way, it is said, frauds to the amount of tea millions of dollars, have been committed inzLovisiana alone, and to what extent similar offences have been perpetrated in other new states rannot be told, I suppose, with precision. At any rate, we know enough of this system. of the fraud, forgery and perjury, which it produces, to deinand its repeal. If no such t consequences resulted from it, the direct interest which all the people o all the states have in selling it tor what zw 28 worth, would forbid the continuance of the system. The rights of all the people in the aggregate, ought certainly to be consider- ed of paramount importance to the benefit which it may be proposed to confer -on a few individuals, who if not speculators of the worst kind, are intruders upon the lands and violators of the laws. They neither merit nor should receive indulgence, bes yond what is bestowed on all the rest of their fellow citizens. If any difference is made, it should rather be in favor of those who demean themselves submissively to the laws, and justly in reference to the rights and interests of others. The whole expense of the land system to the vernment of the United States, the cost of ma- ing the surveys, the payment of officers &c, &c. must be between three and four handred thou- seod dollars a year. It would therefore be little better than profligacy to permit the mcat valua- ble portions of the land to be engrossed by specu- latore, who act only from a love of their own in- terest, and who make immense fortunes out of the substance of the people : Congress should prevent such occurrences if possible. Qa the subject of the public lands, my re- marks, fellow citizens, will perhaps engage an undue portion of yeur time. I[t damaniis your most serious attention, especia}ly at this moment, for Michigao and Arkansaw are claiming to be admitted into the union. If successful, they will increase the relative strength of the new states in congress ; and add tuo the difficulties hereafter of passing any law for the benefit of the old states. Michigan seems to have beer. so eet to get ail the Isnd in her limits, that she did not insert in her constitution, the usual pro- visions, disclaiming on the part of that state, the ownership ~‘ the sil ur the right to dispose of it. For thig rea.on, among others, I expect to vote agtinst adiviltiog Michigar into the Union. Considerable fears are entertained in regard to the safety of the public money deposited in the pet banks. There are thirty-five of these banks which have imioediate liabilities amounting near- ly to seventy-two millions of dollars, and specie in their vaults to something more than ten mil- jonas. Of course they have less than one dollar in gold and silver to pay six do!lais of debt. Qoe bank in Michigan, whose capital is only a huadred and fifty thousand dollars, ha3 nearly eight hundred thousand dollars placed in its keep. ing. ‘These are a few facts out of many which might be stated,to show that the condition of the public money is not as safe ag it ouzht tobe. In order to throw light on the subject, repeated ef- forts have beea made to passa resolution in the House of Representatives, empowering a com- mittee to send for persons and papers, and to ex- amine fully into sundry matters tovching the oundition of the banks and the safety of the gov- ernment deposites. But these efforts have been voted dowa, under the rule which requires two- thirds to suspend it, and those who were in the negative on the questiun seem pre-determined aot to institute the least inquiry. What they mean by it, J cannot tell ; but it appears tome, it is the plaio and imperative duty of Congress to get all the infortration they can on any sub- ject, and especially in regard to the safe keep- ing of the public money, For the money belongs to the people, and Congress, as their agents and representatives, are bound to provide fur its per- fect security. Nor should these pet banks be allawed w ase the deposites, without paying in- terest. ‘hey have about thirty-five millions. which at an interest of aix per cent, would yield more than two millions of dollars. As the mon- ey belongs to the people, so likewise does the in- terest ; but yet the banks, as fas as I know, have not been required to pay any interest at all. Thus in effect they have seperate privileges and emoluments from the rest of the commuia- ty. The namber of state banks has greatly malti- plied of late and at present amounts, I believe, to about six hundred. Fromcertain indications, it would not be surprising if many of them were to break before long, and the country should a- gain be flooded with such ragged, worthless pa- per money as prevailed fifteen or twenty years If these evils du come upon us, I shall have the consolation to know that I have used every effort in my power to prevent their re- carrence ; that! have invariably opposed the system of policy which will have resulted in so Geplorable astate of things, My views on the — have re been fully communica- | to you, and it is unnecessar to repeat them. —* a A new territorial government is about to be established called “ Wisconsin,” situated between Lake Michigan on the east, and Mississippi riv- eron the west.

For the anre- strained exercise of executive discretion gives to it a vast preponderance over al! the other branch- es of the government; and at last will invest it with powers equivalent to absolute monarchy or despotism. The people by whom and for whom | the government was estabisihed, have provide! in the Constitution for the ultimate aecendency of she Representative Branch.

But thie resolntion I think is very defective in its scope and tendency, and not likely to extract the information wanted, on sume very material puints. ‘Ihe most effectual, and authoritative manner of proceeding, is to ap- puiet a committee, with power to send for per- sons and papers; and to conduct, the examina- tion of witnesses face to face. % Investigation in this torm will always lead to more satisfactory results, and on that aceount should be preferred ; particularly when alligations have been made a- gainst the conduct of public officers, or such oth- er persons, as may be associated with them. The Human Frame. How few are in the habit of reflecting upon the skill and wisdom displayed in their formation. In the human system ate 445 bones, each having 40 distinct intentions, or functions to fulfil; 246 muscles, and each of them having 10 different intentions. Besides the tendons, ligaments, nerves,veins,and glands of the body, there are not less than 1, 500,Q00,000 menbranous cells connected with the Jungs, more than 200,000,000.009 pores in the skin, through which perspiration is con- stantly flowing, and above 1,000,000,000 scales which compose the cuticle or skin of the body. There are also the compound organs of life—the brain, the heart, the liver, the spleen, kidneys, the intestines, the organs of sense, with their varied connexions; the blood the bile,thelyumph, the salvia the chyle, &e &e, The astonishing rainification of the nerves and veins through the system may be gathered fiom the fact, that cheleast puncture, thuagh made by the sunallest possible instrament (the sting of a gnat, for instance) wil) both draw blood and produce pain—a prouf that both a nerve aod vein,have been struck. The Montgomery (Alsbama) Advertiser, de- precates the attempts which are continually ma- king to alarm the inhabitants of that State, on tae subject of a war with the Creek Indians — I: is characterized asa “ base and diabulical schene, devised by interested men, to keep an ignorant race of le from maintaining their just rights, and to ceprive them of the final re- maioing pittance placed under their cuntrol, throagh the munificence of the government.” coblempiating our tutuse destiny, nuthing vccurs Bonaparte's mother left a fortane of one mill- ion and sixty thousand dollars, ‘than honorable means. é a ty ~ “a ® : New Yoar, April 17, 388, = To the Editors of tht Richmond Whig :' - Gawriaucn :—A stranger toy end | a Bosthers man in ae are vand a profession, { throw myself on your gegerusity, aod ask permission, through th® calummus of the Whig, to apprise the people of the South of eeme facts, in relation to the use row meking a the. Abolition question, in this section of the Univa, to secure the elevation of MartiaVasBuren to the Presidency. Necessity comipels me to be brief ; [ shall endeavor to be candid and explicit! ~ Permit me to premise that I have beed’ oppos- ed, till within a few weeks, to any connefiien of the slavery question with the Pretideatiat con: | test.. I am an opponent of Mr. Vac Baréa} Sut I trast I should scora to defeat him by avy: ‘ateer I am hostile ty the Ab- olitionists, because I bel:eve their measures di- rectly calculated to defeat their objects, and aot that [ do not join in the general desire of. the North to see slavery extirpated. ‘nus viewing the two questions, I have honestly labored tu keep them entirely distinct from an apprehension of danger tothe integrity of the Union. But, sir, the connexion is forced upor us : there ixsow oo alternative. At this moment, the universal prejudice against slavery at the sorth,is actively, openly, effectually appealed to avd played apun to secure the electiun of Mastin Van Buren, Sach is thenaked faci: allow me to glance at some of the proofs. You will doubtless bave heard much of the dis- organization and division of the late Aati-Masoa- ic party at the north; but I uo not perceive that it is rightly anderstood at the south. This party is and has been warmly, peculiarly and ({ duubt ; not) honestly hostile to slavery. ‘This hustility is the lever by which the operation has been ef- fected. A club of office seekers in the vicinity of Boston, have been movers, and one B. KF. Hal- let, Exditor of the Boston ¢Anti-Masonic) Daily Advocate, and brother-in-law to Barnibas Bates, (the real post master of this city,) has been the principal agent. You will wonder that one man has hed power to change the sentiments of three fuurths of a party casting 50,000 in N. England, from an utter aversiun of V. Baren to a cordial suppert. You need not—Anti-Slavery has been the leading card throughout. ‘The unceasing cry of the copspizacy has been, “‘ People of New England! you have no choice but to take Van Buren—a Northern mano with Northen feelings and Northern associations,—or indirectly contrt- bute to the election of Hugh L. White,‘a slave- holder, and the eandidate of the Slave holding South! Choose ye!” I have silently watched the course of this demagugue aad his co-laborers for & year past, and it isonly the complete suc- cess of the appeal which has awakened me to the importance of counteracting it. Yes, air, it ig right that the South should understand that the seheme has been fully successful. At this moment the entire Anti-Masonic party of Mas- sachusetts( polling at least twelve thuusand votes) is opeuly taking up a position in the Van Buren ranks. Every jourual of the party displays the flag of Van Buren and Johnson, strangely covered with Anti Masonic devices. The real object of the leaders is, “ spoils !”’—but their watchword among their fullowers is, ** Huzza for a Northern President! Down with the siave- holders’ candidate!’ As, connected with this, a violentand unreasynably protracted eannouade is kept up on the Whig party and Whig aythor- ities of Boston, in the grave charge of perinitting an! ever. countenaneing the Anti abolition rivts vi last Summer, by which ‘Thompson ‘wag driven from that city, and Garrison and ihe Ladies’ An- U-Slavery society were roughly handled. i am no apulogist fur these proceedings; but the politt- cal use, which is being made of thein,is untair in itself, unjust to the Whigs, and highly. injuri- vus to the Suuth: In Vermont, the same game is playing, thuugh not yet with suet indispalu ble success ag in Massachusetis.— Phe opporia- ly wag originally the gaine 5 but tte master spir- it was not here to superintend the working of gis machinery. Vermont ig at this moment the nearest approximation tu an abolition State of any in the Union, as yoo will have interred from the course of her Senaturs in Congress A very large Siate Anti-Slavery Suciety is now in act- ive existence, uf which the prominent men are mainly Anti-Masonic Van Burenite-. Still, sv strong 13 the original repugnance to Mt. Vau Bu- ren in this State, that. the mad-dog cry ot ** Slaveholder’s Candidate!’ has net fully an- swered iisend. ‘Ihe Anti-Masonie State Con- vention, afier a severe siruugle, quminated Gen. Harrisun by a decided majority. ‘Phe Van Bu- reniteas seceded, and nominated their Kinder: hvok idulj;aud now three out of the four Anti-Ma- ‘sonic papers support this minority nomination, and 80 du two thirds of the furmer leaders of the party. E,very one of these Van Buren jourrals is violently Anti Slavery, and zealonsly. vocifer- ating ‘Northern President!’ ** Slave holders’ Candidate!” and soon. ‘hey manage, sume bow or other to uaderstand Vao Buren’s letter tuthe Nurth Carclinians ag fully satisfactory, while White's declaration that it be uneunstita tional to abolish Slavery in thg District is handled as a bugbear to frighten all OPpfonents of slavery inte Van Burenism. You will readily sé¢ how difficult it is to resist this appeal to whatever of celigivus fanaticism and sectiunaPPprejudice ex- ists at the North. We shali contf§ue to make head against it, and not without hopes of success; but at thie moment Van Buren’s chance of ubtain- ing every New England vote is better than his pruspect of obtaining a duzen in the other free States from the Delaware to the Missigsippi. In- deed, Vermont and Massachusetts, bad as they are,are our only hopes North of the Hudson. Rhode [sland is now ruled by aii open coalition of Anti-Masonry and Van Burenisu; while the Abolitionists loudly buast that the balance of pow- er is in their hands, and that neither party dare offend them. Cornecticut— out you bave seen how matters goin that quarter. Jt is openly proclaimed that the Anti-Masuns and abu! .tign- ists defeated the Whigs in that State, bus I have Ro undeniable evidence of the fact. in Maine and N.

Io this State, tuo, “‘ the Banner” (Washingwo county,) the ouly convert from Anti- Masonry to Van Burenism, is a vivlent Abulition p: per, I might state a shousand instances from my own private intercourse with politicians of she ase of the Anti-Slavery feeling at the North to make pruselytes tu Van Burenism ; but | have chusen to cunfine myself ww facts uf ind«sputable notorie'\y.

And this consistent party, playing upuu sectional prejudices at bath epdsof the Union, are yet abusing the Whigs on cha of doing so at the South. Ought they oot tw held to one story at atime ?

And they said Of Prince of Ycrk, the rightful and first annointed succesor to our most venerable chief, what hast thou to fear, when thoa know- esi that at his voice a nation trembleth, and at the stamping of his foot, they are dismayed. Atter these sayings, Martin departed with his wand to consult his oracle—and when he had made an end of these things,he ran and fell down at the feet of Thuinas the honest, and cried out saying, Wol wo! wot to me! Now it came to pass when Richerd the virtoous, who was a great way off, saw Martin falling at the feet of Thom. as, he ran unto him, and would have pierced Thomas, as he did T********* of old, but Martin cried ont and said, Spare, O! spare him! —And Richard the virtuous eried with a might- ty voice, and said unto the anointed of Andrew, O rightful heir to the throne of this mighty re- public, art thou not slain of Thomas the honest? said unto Richard the virtuous, Thou vile amal- gamator, thinkest thou that I wou!d slay the an- nointed of our most venerable chief? No, ra- ther would | destoy thee and all thy house- hold! But £ fear our prince hath seen an evil spill And it came to pass, after they had made an end of these sayings; that Martin the Ist,the annvinted of Andrew, said unto them,Be- hold! when I went to consult my oracle, lo! I be- held a White beast, with a wreath on his head even brigher than that which, my master wear- eth, adorned with many glittering stars—and there shone upon his breast this inscription:” “This mighty pation will no longer subinit to your master’s dictation neither will it ratify the deerees of any Kinderhook caucus, of any Bal- timore tumbug, which shall nominate Martin Van Buren to the Presidential Chair; but with the spirit of their fathers THEY WILL CHOOSE THEIR OWN RULERS, as of right they should du!” And after I looked again, and behold! there stood by the Great White Beast, one smaller in stat- ure and different in colur. Hiseyes were like unto stars. and on his brow was plaeed 4 civic wreath—And he said onto me, witha voice as the roaring of mighty thunder, “O! thou syc- ophant, Of thou who has sown the seeds of dis- cord amongst this once happy peuple, and hast shaken the pillars of American liberty and inde- pendence, by the vile machinations, behold the hour is come, when I will make known to this nation, not only thy crooked conduct through life, but all thy magicial tricks, and thou shalt be hated by all the lovers of freedom!” And when I heard these sayings, and beheld the light ning of his eyes, I trembled with fear and fell duwoa as adead man.

FROM ALABAMA. The Montgomery Journal of April 27 states that orders had been issued by the Governor of Alabama to Generals Scott and Watkins [of that State} to draught 2,000 men from their drigades, and to hold them in readiness to act against the Creek /nidians, should, any emergency arise to require it. ‘The Journal states al- so that itis not informed as to ihe cir- cumstances which in the judgment of the Governor, have rendered it necessary to organize this large force. and therefure can- not judge of its propriety. ee Mighty important from Tez- as.

H. @hepperd, on the diplomatic expenses of the Government ; it dues him great credit, and we will take pleasare in giving it to our readers next week. The Land Bill having passed the Senate, is making small progress in the other House : we have little hope that it will go through that body successfully. The presentaim of “ the Party” seems to be to surrender it to the tender mercies of the Committee of Ways and Means where it may sleep the sleep of death, or be enthralled with sach modifications as to prevent its being owned by itsown paternity, as was attempted last Winter witha resolution on this subject in our Legislature. ‘This mode is preferred be- eause it defeats the measure without incurring responsibility. Will the people of North Caro- lina, who are so vitally concerned in this Bill, pardon such conduct in the Represeatatives from our Siate ? TEXAS. The news from Texas is highly interesting and flattering to the success of the Patriuis.— ‘The extraordinary success of Gen. Houston in capturing Santa Anna and his whole army with a luss of only five or six men killed and about 26 wounded, seems to be credited nearer the scene of action. We received a letter froin a highly respectable Gentleman at New Orleans, cated 6th of May, in which the newspaper accounts are spoken of withuut the expressiun of the leas! doubt as to their truth. Anuther letter from Macon, Ga., to a gentleman in this place, in- cluding an extra from the ‘* Messenger” Office to the same effect uf the article on the subject in this paper, dated 10th Inst., contains this message wus. ‘ Tum here favored with an op- portunity of furnishing my friend, Hamilton C. Jones, with the glorious news from ‘Texas, the fall of the Lyrant Santa Anna. I can assure you there was no little rejoicing in Macon last night on account of the same: fur as you may have probably seen in the papers, there were 80 men who went from this place, only 2 of whom escaped the hand of the monster.” We hope that ‘Texas is destined to be free: the meanness and inhumanity of Santa Anna in | this very contest, show that any Govornnent | uiust be intolerable, of which he is the absolute -head. His conduct has made the people of the United States take a dee; interest in this con- ‘test, while at first, they were mosly indifferent spectators. However strong our sympathies,we would deprecate any interference of our Govern- ment, as one of the worst evils that could befal the country : Besides the ordinary calamities of war, there is danger of some military desperado stirring up our Slaves as was threateced by San- ta‘Anna, and the no less horrid exposure to [n- dian cruelties along the whole of our South-wes- tern boider. We like not therefore, the late de- monstrations of General Gaines—they appear entirely too hostile to consist with our friendly relations with Mexico, and what appears not f : = em SON. These two worthies ar@ahout t came'to cross words. Mr. A. stated in debate lately, that Gen. Jackson was consulted absut the treaty which settled the 8. W. limits of the U.S. and that he approved of it. The General has: by authority, (viz: by publication in the Globe) denied ever being consalted; says thathe could not have given the opinion attributed to him, be- cause at the time, he had very little information on the subject. (How many moaths woald that argument stop!!) Mr. A. re-asserts the fact however, with time, place &c. - From a fivat on the shortoess of the Pres:- dents memory, thrown ous afterwards by Sir. A. in another debate anda rather uofavorable comparison made by thesame Geaileman, be- tween the present and the preceding administra- tion on the sabject of removal from office, we thick an enduring split will be the result. These last are curious and buding, therefore we give them. , Mr. Adams rose to explain. He said he had never, while he acted as Secretary of State, made a single change of a pablic printer from political causes. While he was before the country as a candidate for the Presidency, there were many of the printers of the laws, who were as mach opposed to him as any editor could be toany candidate; but he had never changed one of them.from any political motive. He did make: onechange at Gen. Jackson’s ‘personal suggestion; though, whether Gen. J. recollect it or not, he could not tell, [twas in the case of an editor at Nashville; and when Gen. Jackson, and his colleague in the Senate came and ver- sonally requested itas a favor, forit was sup- the editur.was favorable to Gen. Jackson, he did make the transfer; but it was without’) knowing either of the editors. ‘The motive for this change was afterwards the subject of much misconstruction. . present or any Secretary of State with political motives in relation tochangesof this kind; but he did mean tosay, that hedid nut remnove one printer while he was Secretary of State for po- litical considerations; and turther, that while he held a more elevated situation, he never removed one person from office for political causes ; and that, he believed, was one among the principal reasons why he was not more successful as a candidate fur a second election. A Hoaxr.—Qur brother Palmer of the Milton Spectator has been sadly imposed upon lately, but it was all forfun no doubt. He has been made to pvolish the martiage of Mr. William H.

But this is not all, he was also requested to announce that a Mr. McRae would deliver the next Annual Ad- dress before the two Literary Societies at the University, when it has been published to the world that the Hon.

FROM FLORIDA. ‘The Savannah Georgian, of the 19th inst. says:—‘The steam packet Florida, Capt. Hebbard, arrived yesterday afternoon from Picolata, via Jacksonville. We learn that is reportea at Jacksonville that a large body of Jnd:ans had stormed the fortifica- | tion thrown up by Capt. McLemore,on the Outhlacoochee, and massacred the garri- son of forty men and their galiant comman- der. Maj. Cooper of Putnam, had been sent it is said from Fort Drane, with the. Battal- ion from this State under his command, to the point of the Outhlacoochee, which Capt- M’L. occupied to ascertain the fact. We trust that they may find these brave men in safety, but we fear the result ui their recon- noisance. Volusia it is said has beer abandoned. There is no further intelligence of mo- ment. Lieut.

DR. PETERS’ Vegetable Anti=Billous Pills Are the cheapest and most approved FAMILY MEDICINE ever offered tu the Public. ‘They are extremely mild ia their operation, neither causing sickness uf the stomach, nor any un- pleasant sensation in the system, as is tvo fre- quently the result trom medicine given to act upon the bowels. ‘They act specifically upon the Liver, when in a torpid condition, carrying off a large quant:ty of bile, through the influence off the excernent function, which, if suffered to remain in the system, would produce either Jaun- dice, Liver Cumplaint. Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, or sume o.her gtievuus bodily affliction. In all cases of torpor of the bowels, they act like acharin. In recent cases of Dyspepsia, they areacertain cure. Many persons who were subject tu viulent attacks of sick head ache, have been much benefitied, and several perfectiy cur- ed in a few weeks by theiruse. They are highly recommended as a preventive and cure of Uilivus complainis. Persuns who are subject to that distressing complaint, 8a-sickness, by taking a portiun or two of then a few days previous to embatking on board the vessel, will be almust certain tu escape it. Females can use them 4@t all periods, without incurring any risk. Persons going to sea, or lua southern climate, shonld by all means take sume of these Pills with them.— Mbeir virtues will renatn unimpaired for years inany climate. No family should be without these Pills 5 a portion of them, takea occasional ly. would be the meana of preventing much suf tering frown sickness. {tis from negleet of keep ing up a regular peristaltic action of the stomach and bowels, thus suffering tu be absorbed and iningled with the blood, unassimilated fluids, ihat must diseases are produced. Dr. P. teels confident that nu persun who gives these Pills a fair trial, will ever atier feel willing to be with- out them, ‘The testimony of thuusands speak- ing in the highest terms of their efficacy, might be added, butthe very high reputation Dr. P. has acquired as the inventor uf the “‘ Patent Vegetable Medicine Stomaehica et Hepatice,” for the cure of Dyspepsia aad Liver complaints, 1s thought a sufficient guarantee to those wish- ing to make a trial of their virtues. They con. tain not a particle of Mercuty,or any ingredient that dues nut act in harmony with health and op- disease. Dr. P. wishes it distinctly understood, that these Pills pussess beneficial quali'ies indepen- dent of their purgative effects ; they are buth to- nic and deobstruent, acting upon the secreting and exbalent functions ; thus strengthening the tient, while they femove obstructions -— Medicines which pussess no other, excepting ca- thartie qualities, debilitate the patient, and their reperted use lays the foundation uf a long cata- lugue of Chronic diseases. Dr. P. having been educated under the mos! eminent American and European Medical pro feseors, and practiced hie profeasion many years in the South, where diseases uf the most obsti- nate charactet prevail, considers himeelf well qualified to judge on thenature of diseases inci- dent to warm climates.

To-day, a gentleman from Tennessee thinks it unimportant to look to the amounts of contingent appropriation; yet, in 1828, a meniber from the same State (Mr. Biair) and likewrse the present gentleman, oppos- ed to the thea administration, in a report, touching this very Department of the Gov- ernment, recommends, not merely to di- minish the contingencies applicable to ‘nis- sions abroad,’ but that no appropriation whatever be made for that object.

Perceiving from the books of the Trea- sury and the detailed disbursement furnish- ed the committee to which 1 belong, that neither of these heads of experditure us- ually exceeded twenty-thousand dollars,an- nually, and that for the last year, that ‘fer missions abruad? was only 16,221,387 dol- lars, | was ready to object; and did intend, even under this view of the subject, to pro- pose to reduce the appropriations to some: thing like the expenditure; but, sir, what was My surprise when by reference to the balances in the office of the Register of the Treasury, J ascertained the fact, that at the close of the last year there was on hand thirty thousand dollars, applicable to the service of the present year, under the head of ‘Contingencies of Foreign Intercourse;? and the sun of $40,503,00 belonging to that of ‘all the missions abroad? Thus we see, sir, that, under two heads of appro- priation, usually covering an annual expen- diture of not quite forty thousand dollars, year, the suin of seventy thousand five hun- dred and eight dellars; and yet the Secreta- ry of State requires a farther appropriation of sixty thousand dollars!

It has not been usual for the agent to be possessed, at so early a day, of the whole sum, likely to be disbursed during the en- tire year ; but I presume, 1t was so done in this instance, for the reason, that more than the usual amount of the annual expen- diture was about being incurred at an ear- ly period, and within the first quarter of the year ofthis I may speak hereafter: there was then in October last, nothing left to conjecture and estimate under the head of contingencies of foreign intercourse, and by reference to the expences of ‘missions a- broad, we find that only $5,375, 89, was required during the last quarter of the ytar 1835. -This sum then turns out to be the an. yp upod whieh itis now contend- ed that, netwithstanding the balances I have shown to be on hand, at the begin- ning of 1835, and at the close of the third quarter of that year, the secretary could six doliare per day, but he was also allow- ‘representatives of the people. ' _Althoagh, sir, as I have just intimated, I have no’ particular charge of extravagance to make, touching the cisbursements that I have examined, yet in the progress. of that minote investigation, which by the com mitiee J was authorised to make, J met with some items of expendiwre, which were at least, in their character somewhat extraordinary, if not wholly objectionable. In this class J would place the sums paid out of the appropriations fur Contingeeies of Foreign Intercourse, by direction of the President of the Unitec States, to one Ed- mund Roberts, a citizen of New Hamp- shire. In the year 1882, Mr. Roberts was vom- missioned, or employed, by the President of the United States, to visit the countries of Muscat, Siam, Cochin,Chira and Japan. The object of this Eastern Mission seems to have been the formation of treaties with the Sovereigns uf these demi-barbarous na- tions : to aid in its fulflment, presents on behalf of our government, were made to about the amount of three thousand three hundred dollars. ‘The compensation of this government agent was at this time fixed at t ed, in the settlement of his accounts, five | ! per cent. commission upon the suns su dis- bursed by him in presents.

The Quotimenne remarks that the Royal- ist Journals have been seized in three days ; and, in so doing. the Ministry has employed against them the most rigoroas of the rights attributed to it by the law of September. In all this it is difficult to perceive that M. Sanzet has degener- ated from M. Persil, and in fact the laiter was Sir.—T wo drivers have this moment ar- rived, bringing the distiegssing intelligence that two stages containing five heavy leath- | er mails, accompanied by a guard of six, men, and several passengers, making in all | fourteen persons, were attacked this day | about noon, 18 miles from this town, by a large body of Indians, and overpow- | ered. The drivers left the stages, and ing of the guarc or passengers.

Very respectfully, J. VAN NESS, P. M. TUESDAY. May 17—12 Noon. The friendly Indians sent out last night, have this moment returned, and report that on their arrival at the place where the mails were left, they discovered the stage in the road, and alsu the mail wagon, to- gether with three dead men and two dead horses. ‘hey state that they saw in the wagon three large mail bags untouched and a quantity of newspapers strewed on the ground ; that they commenced collecting the newspapers, when an Indian made his appeatance near them, and on ascertaining who they were, plunged into a cane break near them, where these friendly Indians suppose a large party of the hostile band were concealed, and that they immediately fled. This statement embraces their whole story. Every thing here is in utter confusion— no system—no organization— but perfect anarchy. Two hundred men could keep the road open from this to Montgomery, at least until troops are collected in the na- tion; but at present all command and. none obey. Itis to be regretted that there is not on the spot some distinguisued Military of- ficer of the General Government, to assu'ne the command and give force and efficiency to the imperfect arrangements making to secure the safety of the frontier; for as to the property in the nation, that.s all des- troyed. I regret exceedingly that it is not im my power lo yive more detailed and coherent statements, in relation to affairs here. 1 shall make every effort torescue the mails, but J now entertain no hope of their being saved. Very respectfully, JAMES VAN NESS, P. M. Another letter from the Post Master at Columbus, dated, 17th inst. states that Jas. Green, the driver who left that place the day previous, was seen by the Indians who went ont to bring in the mails, killed and and half burnt—the stage was also’burned.

April 5. The Courrier Francats, the NATIONAL, the ConsTITUTIONNEL,and the JOURNAL DU ComMMERCE coutain articles upon the propo- sed duties to be Jaid on indigenous sugars, and all unite in condemning the measure strongly. ‘The first declares that the ben- efit of the restrictions would go to the Bel- gians, Prussians, &c. who would grow the sugar that it would be impossible to grow in France ; and the second shows that a diminution of duties upon the entry of colonial sugar is not only the best way of doing justice to the colonies, but by the increase of consumption will make up the deficit that is complained of in the public revenue. The Constitutionnel takes notice of a report for the regulation of the customs, presented by M. Ducos to the Chamber, and approves of it highly for introducing reforms liberally, and yet prudently. Lib- eriy of commerce, it observes, ought to be the nominal state of things ; but when a system of commercial legislation is estab- lished, transactions in it must not be too violent; gradual recuction of duties are therefore preferable to the sudden abolition of tariffs. The Impartial remarks that the quasi- intervention of England into Spain results in the change of position with that country has effected in her relations with Spain. When intervention was demanded at first, it was France that wished it, and England was opposed to it; England, however, is now all powerful at Madrid,and will repay herself by commercial advantages. No great importance is to be attached to the intervention, and is chiefly valuable as showing decidedly what are the intentions of England with regard to Don Carlos. April 6. The Massager takes notice of the article in the Debuls upon the state of the insurrec- tion in the north of Spain, and repeats iis former opinion that the cause of Don Carlos would fall as soon as the contraband trade by the Pyrenees was put anend to. ‘I‘his seems, is now likely to take place. The Debals says that the Carlists may,at any time, break throngh the line of the Christinos: of course they may, but the questionis. if they do, where will they go? The whole affair is one of time, and the opening campaign will put an end tothe insurrection, if the Government knows how to profit by the good-will and co-operation of the Cortes.

Mrs. Catharine R. Gaither moved that Mrs. Cynthia McGuire take the Chair, and Mrs. Sarah Greenlee act as Se cretary. Mrs. Adeline Massy explained the ob- ject of the meeting in afew very appropriate and feeling remarks, and Miss Delia H. Erwin submitted the fullowing Preamble and Resolu- tions, Which were unanimously adupted : ‘he members of the Female Benevolent So- ciety of Morganton, have received with painful emotion, the melancholy intelligence of the death of Mrs. LOUISA M. ESPY—the benev- olent and social cuinpanion—the refined and ac- complished Lacy—the ardent & devoted Chris tian—is no more! None could have been taken from the circle of this Suciety, whose fate would have Created a | inure general sensativn or excited a deeper sym- pathy. In Mrs. Espy, this Society found a warm and devoted member, whose whole course was io promote the benevolent object of its institution, and whose zeal was indefatigable in this and ev- ery other religious enterprise. She was distin- guished tn all the social relations of life, batit was in the pivus circle that her brilliancy show ed furth in its greatest splendour, where she was uniireing in her effuris to diffuse her reli- gious Influence, and to induce all to recognize the Saviour as the only means of salvation, ‘Those vt us nearest her equals in age—who have known and assuciated with her from child hood, and have participated in her contidenve—- will lung cherish the liveliest recollection of her many virtues, and think of her with fond affee- tion as one of the clicice spirits of our earlier days.

From the views of the preceding gentleman as well as oih- ers who offered some remarks, it wag Resolved, ‘That we would not pretend to Giclute or advise the Engineers or Delegates what route to pursue by delineations on maps; but that, believing the Mineral Route, (as tt has been appropriately ler:ned,) pass ing through Fairtield, Chester and York Districts, S.

IN P.O CHAPTERS—CHAPTER THE FIRST. You see, there had been a young man ap- pointed secone hientensnt, and sent to our regi inent, he had not been tried in the West Puint furnace ; but, being out uf employment and the relation of some influential person had been pro vided for by being placed in the army. Be was oaly a few degrees from being a natural fool, and what could he do commanding men ? When he joined, the officers at the post sinvked him They were a devil. may care set of felluws, iad as gay as larks ; su full of tuo, that they did nut spare one another ; and, indeed, sumetimes one would not spare himself, tu annoy and have his fun out of uthers. When this greenhorn came among them, it wasa treat. They soon founc out that he was never meant for that profession, and forthwith began tu annoy him. Captain Mannus, wasa rare fellow ; and as to money, or sport, he never had a reflection beyond the pres stricken at thie con id, and as the music hed he bought that bated base, eeiete and tg ss he t that too late the captain told him he would be eourt-martialed. Looking the Adjatant Stafford in the face he said : ‘I ran as fast as I could, and you did not give me time to go once!’ * Go to your quartera?’ said Stafford, not know- {t was Ghéer ‘igeorance or imperti- nence that caused the other's eond uct. . Poor Cliff bent down hie head, and carsing strictness of discipline, complied with the repeat- ed order. The ceremony of guard mounting wes then finished ; the sergeant of the guard taking the place of the arrested officer. As soon as his duties were over, Adjutant Stafford visited the prisoner at quarters, the better to understand the nature of the case, befure reporting it to the com- manding officer. The conference disclused to him the trick which his guod natured annoyer, ‘the Captain, had been playing on both. His- ire was raised, because his dignity had been at- tacked. * Lientenant Cliff,’ said he, greatly agitated “you have been impused on by Captain Mannas.. He is fur ever put us all by the ears, and the colonel allows it, but he shall be stopped, if I ean do it. Fil insiantly go to the colonel, and see if he will not right our rongs. Had I known you had been made a dupe hy older officers, who should be ashamed of themselves, I would not have arrested you. You are now released.’ He quitted the apartment. When he was left to himself, Cliff considered the affair in its right light, and thunght of the little respect that had been paid his feelings. It was an insult, and not tobe borne! What was to be done? He must fight tte captain. His blood ran cold ! If he killed the captain, wouldn’t he be hung ? He felt his neck and shuddered: Perhaps the capt.in might kill him! He stopped his breath to try how it wuald feel to breathe no more—it was too horrible. Then may be te would get wounded in a leg, and ave .the bone shattered; he thought of the tourniquet dressing on his thigh! of the cold knife drawing round the flesh ! of the saw separating the bone, and its entering the marrow—he jerked op his leg, as if he feltthe pain, A thousand similar visions rose before him. Mother! friends! executions ! bullets ! legs ! arms! flesh-knives ! bone-saws ! death ! and the cold, cold grave! He trembled, and his chalk like countenance became chalker than ever. While Cliffs mind was thus busily and heav- ily engaged, the adjutant strode with an uni- formly accelerated pace toward the quarters of the commander ; his cheek glowing and his eyes brilliant with anger. Hebrushed past the or- derly at the dour, and did not nvtice the salute made to him. ‘I'he commanding officer, who had not been a witness of the tranaction, heard the statement with surprise, yet there shone a waggery in hi- eye as the name of Captain Mannus was men tioned as the instigator of thig outrage on the ‘Raolesand Articles of War.” as the adjutant pronounced it. ‘The colonel dismissed the staff officer, and despatched his orderly to bid the at- fendaree of the captain. Presently after that gentleman entered, his face elongated, his eyes cst down, and hig manner ludicrously demure. ‘This was all put on, for the captain was a favor ite of the colonel’s, and was aware of it besides the colonel himself was not spared when the cap- tain was in search of fun. ‘Did you send for me, colonel?? said the ent. How he came to take such gued care of | junior, in atone so infinitely full of meek- his company, puzzles me ; for, unreflecting as he was in all that regarded himselr, he looked far ahead for those under him, aad prided himself on having the best company in the regiment. When on duty he was unbending and strict, pre- serving a dignity that awed all his assuuiales, but off, he was hail fellow-well met with all the officers. He was the fountain-head of all devil- trv, and he made it his study to aunoy the adjn lant, a little, prim, ill-natured thing, who by being appointed tu the staff thought himself tov good tu be commun, and therefore was cool reserved and distant. Many a grievous evil did this line of condvet bring upoa hin fron his nore free, easy, agreeable and lively companions. But tu the new leutenant—hbis name was Clitt, and his cuuplexton like that of Dover, rather chalky He had a low forehead, thick hatr, and) thicker nose, & lips thicker than either, but hig head was thickest ofall. Capt. Mannus at first undertook to become the patron of this youth, but aller a few days caine to the cunclusiva thal he was ‘tuo bis a fool; and from being a protector vecame the reverse, although he did nut display differ ent culuurs, pretending to ve still a friend to Cliff. One evening Cliff was detailed to be uofficer of the next day. ‘The adjutant commands the gusrd when it mounts, and the officer has to ubvy his orders. As Chiffdid not knuw the funns, be ap plied to his adviser, the captain. ‘ Now, youu see,’ said the captain, ag soon as the adjutant has looked atall the guard and you, at the muskets, he will place himself in front and order ‘the trours! beat off!" As soon as you hear himsay * beat off!’ you must put up your sword, #ud you know that square-stune bales in Sine corner, the magazine ?? ‘ es,’ * Well, you must run round that as hard as you can three times and then come back and sa lute the guarc with your sword, and the adjutant will let you know what's to be dune next. B- sure you run fast enough to get back befure the drum has done beating ; if ycuare a secund wo late you'll be tried by a court-marual.’ * Don’t fear that,’ said the other, * Pll go itin a jiffy!,’ - ‘Tbe captaio informed the frolicking club of the joke, and next morning all were eager fur the sport, The guard was formed and inspected— the adjutant placed himself in front, and you might eee Cliff's eye steal often toward the mag- azine, as if measuring its dimensiones and reflect- ing on the prubability of accomplishing bis cir- cumambulaton in time. Presently the word was given ‘the troops!’ The lieutenant raised his sword-arm ready to sheath his sword, he in- clined slightly toward the direction, his eyes fix ed, his lips clued in anxiety ,and as the last words * beat off!’ sounded on his ear off he started with amazing velocity, his sash flying behind him, and ais sword dangling between his | at every step nearly tripping him ; bat fear of a court-martial leot him wings, and on he sped. The priv staff officer lowered his onder lip and looked in woader. The dromstick was stayed ; ed ontright; the officers 10 the secret ran into their rooms ; threw themselves on their beds and kieked ard cried with laughter— bat still, on went the victim of the quiz. ‘Three timss had he traversed the magazine's circamference, and as the last time was sccomplished, he leaped in as usual, J.J. front of the guard and saluted. The astounded the fifer discontinued his strain ; the guard laugh-. ness, blended indefinably with good hu- mour, that the colonel could scarce maintain his gravity, ‘Yes. said he, quick and short. as if to make the other know his place. But still standing, the captain said: ‘What did you want? in a tone that put to flight the other’s anger,but still he would not smile. The withheld muscles, howev- er, started a tear to his eye ‘Hem! went the colonel, ‘A hem! wentthe captain. The colonel and the captain were si- lent. ‘Ahem! repeated the latter. The colonel bit his lip, determined not to forget his dignity. ‘Did you instigate Lientenant Cliff to rn round the magazine?’ said Colonel Stoat. Mannus uttered a dcep drawn sigh, and in a voice of humanity and repentance an- swered— ‘I did, but T won’t do so again!” The victory was his. The colone!’s sides shook; his eyes shut, his mouth open- ed and he burst into a fit of uncontrollable Liughter. The captain raised his eyes mod- estly, and lowered them again. ‘Pm tired! shall | sit down colonel?’ said he. ‘No! no! go away! said the colonel. The captain retired. When he foined the crowd of officers, who were awaiting his return, be related the particulars of the meeting that had just taken place. The re- cial gave cise to great merriment. When it had partially snhsided, the captain turned to Lientenant Runk, who was a great hand at mischief, and who, possessed wit enongh to invent.was also a master-hand to execute any concerted plan. ‘Runk.’ said Mannus, ‘we must not quit the joke; you must sham yourself Cliff's friend, and make him call me out. J believe, from the cut of his jib, youll have hard work to do it; but you must not give up.’ ‘You won’t fight surely ?? said Runk. ‘Yes, will 1, said the captain, ‘but no one will de, unlesshe out of pure fright or you with laughing. ‘Go ahead! cned all. Away went Runk. He found Chiff look- ing desolate and forsaken. ‘You are in trouble,’ said Rank, bluntly, ‘and | have come to serve you.” Cliff sighed and said, ‘Sit dowa,1 do want a friend,’ and a deeper shade of film darkened his expressionless eye. ‘Well, I am your friend if you want to fight, and you must do it, that’s a fact.’ ‘Must 1?” said the disconsolate. ‘Must you! Pray, why not?’ ‘Oh! | might kill bim? ‘Kull bim-—what if you doi* bof that? Fal ‘What of that? said Cliff, amazed, ‘Why. how: you talk. : Nonsense? kill him. Pehaw! if you do you won't be hung. Pil get you off “Bat suppose 1 doa" fight? be kicked out of the army, way he-became captain!’ ‘How for inerey’sstke gasped Cliff. ‘He shot all the lieutenants above him? him? How did he escape? ‘Oh—he ladghed the thing off, and every body was afraid to take notice of it. The new officer mused, at ‘length he said— ‘If we ficht, he may kill me? 4Never fear that,’ said Runk: ‘Now Pll tell you a secret, but its between you and me; I have appeared asa friend to that fel- Mannus, aod it was ‘because | was afraid of him. I want to get him out of the way, and s0, if you’re agreed we'll fix him. You must fight, that’s a matter of fact, but | don’t see why you should fall by his hand. Now, if you promise to trust implicitly in me, you shall be in no danger and may kill bm? ‘That would be murder!’ ly observed. _ ‘Murder,’ said the other, ‘no such thing; it is nothing but justice; and the man that slays him, does the human race a kind- ness * Cliff trembling- ae eye of Cliff brightened as he said— ‘Would there then, be no danger for me!” ‘None.? ‘Then | might not kill bim, and so Soth get off ? Ruok laughed in his sleeve as he thought tc himself, ‘Nothing can be too hard on such a low spirited elf as this, who don’t seem to care much what he does, so he’s not killed.» He spoke aloud: ‘No vou must kill him the first shot. Imay not be succeseful twice, and if you miss him the first time, you are gone gos- ling? ‘What shall 1 do! What shall [ no! said the poltroon, wringing his hands. ‘Do! why, write him a challenge.

THanxseiving.—‘Come Charles, my son,” said deacon Allworthy. ‘‘take one of them are turkeys and carry it up to Parson Muody, fur thanksgiving.” »No father. [don’t do that again I tell ye! ‘What do I hear now, Charles!—These five and twenty years I have sent the parson a tur- key, and Jue has carried them, and Tom, and Jerry, and you without refusing.

He soon. returned, tuok uff his hat, made a bow, and said, Mr. Moudy, here is a turkey which my father sent you, and wishes you to accept of as a pre- seut.’ Charles rose from his seat, took the fowl, and said to the minister, ‘it’s a very fine one, and | feel very grateful tu your father for it. In this and numerous other instances he has contributed tomy happiness. If yoa will just carry it to the kitchen, and return egain, [ will call to Mrs. Moody to give yuu half a dollar.’ ; The, parson walked out of the room—his friends laughed at the joke, snd made up a purse fur the lad, who ever afterwards received a re- ward for his services. ‘Snootine tus Lone Bow.’—Stretching a fact till-you have made it as Jong as you want it. Lord Herbert of Cheroury’s tastes have descend- ed to sume of our modern ovbility, fur he tells us, in hia auto-biography, “The exercise I chiefly used, and mostly recommended to my posterity were riding the horse and fencing.

Dear Sir— We are progressing in our le- gislative business slowly. Many questions of much interest have been, and are yet, under consideration. The bill to distribute &@ portion of the avails of our public Lands among the respective States is stil] debated here. It is a subject of increasing interest; common stature,with light flaxen hair, light blue eyes, and that their skin is of the most delicate whiteness. One of my informants who saw sev- en of those people at Santa Fe in 1831, in de- scribing the Mawkey, says, ‘they areas much whiter than me as | am whiter than the dark- est ludian in the Creek nation,” and my infor- mant was of as good a complexion as white men generally are. A trapper un one occasion, in a wandering ex- cursion arrived at the village of the Mawkeye. He was armed with a rifle, a pair of belt pistols, knife and tomahawk ; all of which were new to them, and appeared to excite their wonder and surprise. After conversing some time, by signs, he fired one of his pistols ; instantly the whole group around him fell to the earth, in the utmost consternation : they entreated him not to hurt them, and showed in verioue wsye that they thought bim a supernatural being. He eaw vast numbers of horses and mules about the vil- lage. Query.— May not these people be a remnant of those who inhabited this cuuatry prior to the present race of Indians ? tle traces of whose cit- ies, fortifications, and cultivated field and gar- dens, are still to be.seen throughout the whole western country. While we owed @ national debt, aad had no more money 1n the Treasury than ovr teasonuble wants for the common purpogo of governmeot enabled us to use, | always felt disposed to acquiesce in the opimon that we ought not to distribute.—Now we find ourselves ina new and strange cond)- tion. On the Ist April,wehad in the Trea- sury $32,000,000. The quarter commenc- ing 1st January,and ending $tst March,pro- duced $11,000,000. If we suppose the remaining three quarters to average a like sum for cach quarter, we shall have at the end of the year $38,000,000 more. Add this to the $2 millions we now have, and the amount 1s sixty five millions. Our stock in the Bank of the United we will probably receive, and it now ig ‘wortli seven millions and a half of dollard. “Add this to the sixty-five millions, anid we have an aggregate at the end of the year” equal to Sereniiee millions five hundred thou. sand dollars.

We la- ment it more than any thing, save the fantcicism and villany which alune cao justify it.

Wilkins wasa er, & journeyman carpenter, of small dimensions ; decidedly below the middie size—border— ing, pecthaps, opon the dwarfish. His face was round ard shiorng, aad his hair care- by twisted mto the outer corner of each eye, til! it formed a variety of that descrip- tion of semi-certs, usuelly known as ‘hag- gerawators.” [is earmags were all-suffi- cient for bie wants, varying fiom eighteen sinllings to one pound five, weekly; his the ladies coincided. The sudiencd were seated on elevated benches round the room, and ceowded into every part of it,aud every- body was esting and drinking as comforta- bly as poesdie. Just before the coacert commenced, Mr. Semuel Wilkins ordered: two glasses of rum-and-water ‘warm with — and two stices of lemon, for himself and the other young man, together with ‘a pint o” sherry wine for the ladies, and some sweet carryway-seed bisects,” and they would have been quite comfortable and bap- py, and only one gentleman with large whiskers would stare at Miss J’mima fvins, and another gentleman in plaid waistcoat would wink at Miss J’nmma Ivins’s friend. on which Miss Porima bvins’s friend's y owng man exhibited ‘symptoms of boiling over, and began to mutter about ‘people’s impe- pence,’ and ‘swells out o” luck;’ and to intt- mate, 1n oblique terms, a vague intention of knocking somebody’s head off; whch he wes only prevented froin announcing more emphatically, by both Miss JPmima Ivins and her friend threatening to faint away on the spot if he said another word.

Last evening « party consisting of eleven whites and eight friendly Indians headed by General Thomas 8. Woodward, of Ma- Alabama, reached Columbus, having passed along the mail road from Tushegee. Being anxious to reach this town before dark yesterday, and fearing thet their movements were watched by the hostiles, they travelled with considerable ra- pidity, and did not exemine minotely the place which had been visited by the out- rage of the savages. Gen. Woodward, however, states, that they saw every where in thes route marks of indiscriminate ruin, and destruction, houses pillaged and burnt, stages destroyed, horses killed, and numer- ous haman beings in the state of the most loathsome putrefaction.

So Mr. Samuel Wilkins wasintroduced to Miss Jmima Ivins’s friend’s young man, and they all walked on together, talking and laughing, and joking away like any thing; and when they got as far as Pentonville, Miss Ivins’s friend’s young man would have the ladies go into the Crown to taste some shrub, which, after a great blushing and giggling, and hiding of faces fh elaborate pocket handkerchiefs, they consentad to do. Having tasted it once, they were easily pre- vailed upon to taste it again, and they sat out in the garden tasting shrub and looking at the Busses alternately, till it was just the proper time to goto the Eagle; and then they resumed their journey, and walked on very fast, for fear they should lose the beginning of the concert in the rotunda. ‘How ev’nly! sad Miss Jemima Ivins, and Miss Jemima Ivins’s fnend both at once, when they had passed the gate and were fairly inside the gardens. There were the walks beautifully gravelled and planted, and the refreshment boxes painted and or- namented like so many snufi-boxes, and the variegated lamps shedding their rich light upon the company’s heads, and the place for dancing ready chalked for the company’s feet, and a Moorish band playing at the one end of the gardens, & an opposition military band playing away at the other. Then the waiters were rushing to and {ro with glasses of negus, and glasses of brandy-and-water and bottles of ale, and bottles of stout; and ginger beer was going off in one place, and practical jokes going on in another; and people were crowding to the door of the Rotunde; and 1n short the whole scene was, as Miss J’mima Ivins, inspired by the nov- elty, or the shrub, or both, observed—‘one of dazzling excitement.’ As to the concert- J’mima Ivins’s beau, and the friends young man, lay grasping on the gravel, and the waistcoat and the whiskets were seeu no more. Misa J’mima Ivins and friend being con- sciousthat the affray was tn no slight degree attributable to themselves,of course went in- to hysterics forthwith; declared themselves the most injured of women, exclaimed in incoherent ravings,that they had been wrong- fully suspected—oh! that they should ever have lived to see the day, and so forth; suf- fered a relapse every time they opened their eyes, and saw their unfortunate little admir- ers, and were carried to their respective a- bodes 1n a hackney-coach, and in a state of insensibility, compounded of shrub, sberry, and excitement. TERRIBLE ACHIEVEMENT. The Church of St. Peter and St. Panlis re- markable forits spire the loftiest of St. Petersourg. s s s s s An anecdote connected with this church, and not known, I believe, out of Rassia,is too remaik- able to be omitted. The spire of which rises “lofty, ang light, and small,” acd is probably represented in the engraving a fading away almost into a point inthe sky, is in reality, terminated by a globe of considerable di- mensions, on which an angel stands, supporting a large cross. This angel less respected by the weather thap perhaps his holy character de- served, fell into disrepair ;'and some suspicions were entertained that he designed revisitiog ua invoked, the surface of the earth. The affair caused some uneasiness ; and the Government at length becaine seriously perplexed. ‘To raise a scaffulding to sach a height, would enst_ more money than all the angels of heaven were worth —and in meditating fruitlessly opon these cir- cumstances, without being able to resolve how to act, a considerable time was suffered to elapse. Among the crowd of gazers below who daily turned their eye anc their t hts toward the angel, was a Mijik called ‘Teloackine. This man wasa roofer of houses (a slater as he would be called in countries where slates are used ,) and the extreme freedom of the United States, upun the merits of a goveroment in France.

We have given the particulars of his race at Long Island, from which it will be seen, that. taking the two heats together, the time is most excel- lent. There are some particulars about this race that are somewhat puzzling: for instance, the eagerness of the North men to bet after the first heat, induces the suspicion that they may have held back in that heat fur a bite.—Again, the ease with which John went away from his competitor several times during the second heat, would argue that he was not put up, and yet the short distance by which he finally beat, seems to repel this conclusion. Viewing every thing, the great distance which he travelled so short!y after his tremendous heat with Argyle—his ex- ira running of a 1-4 of a mile—the digagrement of water climate, §&c.

The Fish of Alagon —In tines past there was a certain caplain-peneral of Aragon, who was a great gourmand, and, vonsequeatly, very fond vf salinon ; uf which delicious edible he was in the habit of receiving a weckly suppty from the Bay of Biscay. Of course the tuleteer who brought it passed regularly through Alagon on his way tothe vice-regal ,.lace in Zaragoza, and the worthy alealde of the village having no- thing better tu du, had often held converse with the passing muleteer, and made himself acqua'n- ted with tis affairs. At length he took it trte his head that this said salinun, which was su nice a thing in the mouth of a captain general, could not well prove ansavury in that of aa al- calde. Sv vne day he stopped the returning muleteer, and tuld him that he must have sume of his fish. In vain did the reluctant imuleteer protest that bis excellency would be in despair, and that he wuold be rnined , he insisted upon taking some of the best fish, and protnised to pay particular Finglish baronet, who in personal ap- perance bearss0 curious a resemblance to the King of the French. But sucha baronet has been lately in Paris, and has served @ willy paper,the Mode, as a peg on which to hang a satire and caricature of Louis Philippe. Fur this offence the editor has been brought to trial, by virtue of a law lately passed, which constitutes an offence Against the person of the king, a crime against the state. The baronet is described in the libel ax being so excessively like the monarch, that wherever he went he became subject tu annoy- ance the crowd of persons who hovered abvut his pah, watching his movements and delivering petitions. The parsimory of the king is advert- ed to very strongly in une part, where, when he gives nothing to the petitioners, they are repre- sented ag saying—'‘If it is nut he, he is very like him ;' and when, again, money is bestowed they are made to exclaim, ‘Well, it’a quite clear it isu’t he; one can’t be mistaken to his manners.’ After andergoing much personal inconvenience in the walks which the kins is in the habit of frequenting, the baronet is exhibited as beirg at- tacked by a party of men on the banks of the Se ine ;and, being mistaken for his illustrious prot- otype, is or the point of being thrown into the river,when a furtunate expletive (the too cele- brated ‘God damn’) proves his national individ- uality. The conspiretors thereon remark, how ta mistake they were nearly com:nitting the ‘rossbif’ so closely and hapily resembling the monarch. The counsei for the defence contended that the portrait did not apply to Louis-Philippe, and deciared that he was able to prove, not on- ly that the baronet was a real personage, but that the adventures actually occurred. ‘The jury how- ever found the defendant guilty, and the court eondeinned the editor to six months, imprisyumeat and a fine of 4,000 (r.

It will be convenient to state here that there are contained in the body two kinds of I4ood, differing from each other as much as any two things ean well differ. The one is a beautiful, bright vermilion eolour, teeming with the living principles. preg- nant with all those elements from which the whole of the bodv and all its fluids, ex- cept one, are elaborated, and in a condition readily and instantly to part with thuse el- ements, each at the proper moment and each in the proper place, accordingly as the nutrition of the several parts of the bo- dy requires them. ‘This vermilion blood is, as it were, in a state of excifement, be- ing surcharged, not with the principles of electricity, but with the principles of firing matter ; and as it circulates through the ininute vessels, parts with those living el- ements with the readiness and freedom with which a highly excited body parts with its electricity. ‘This blood 1s convey- ed in vessels called arteries. ‘The other kind of blood is a nasty, thick, purplish, blackish, inky pudele, unendowed with any good quaiity, endowed with many per- nic.ous ones, productive of much mischief, but guiltless of any one good with which I am acquainted, save only that from it the bile is formed. This bloud is contained in vessels called veins. Some of the princi- pal differences between arteries and veins are the fullowing :—'The arteries carry the living blood from the heart fo every point of the body. ‘he veias, like so many waste pipes, carry the deteriorated, dirty, and if [ may so speak, dead and useless blood from every point of the body to the heart. ‘The arteries arising by one large trunk from the heart, become smaller and smaller as they pursue their course towards theirtermination, ‘The veins, arising from the innumerable terminations of arteries,be- come larger § larger as they proceed. ‘The arteries,therefore in the neighborhood of the heart,from which,as I have just said, they all arise by one common root, (the aorta.) are large and few ; but from the sides of these there are perpetually given off smaller and sinaller branches, while, from these smal- ler, others, still smaller than they, contin- ne to arise, and so on until the whole are finally lost in indistinguishable minute- ness. White the arteries are in this state of wonderful attenuation, their course is ex- ceedingly tortuous ; they recoil upon theme selves, and are cireumflexed hither and thither until there is scarcely a point in the body which is not occupied by one of these little vessels. After having thus per- meated the universal body, they lose the characteristics of arteries and assume the structure of veins. The terminations of arteries are the beginnings of veins. ‘his termination of arteries in veins can be seen by the aid of the microscope, in the frog and salamander. In some fishes it can be seen with the naked eye. ‘The arteries near their termination and the veins near their beginning are many times smaller than the finest hairs, and this hair-like state of minuteness constitutes the ullimate tissue of the arteries and veins—and so the tissue formed by the nerves and absorbent vessels, while in their last state of minute- ness, constitutes the ultimate tissue of the nerves and absorbents, and that beautiful network formed by the interlacing of all these delicate and hair-like threads, viz. ar- teries, veins, nerves, and absorbents in their minutest condition, constitute the ul- timate lrssue of the body, and this ultimate tissue constitutes, in fact, nearly the whole of the body. For all that which appears to our eyes so firm and solid (not even ex- cepting the bones) is almost entirely con- sisting of this astonishing network of min- ute vessels and nerves. This network, or ultimate tissue of the bodv, owes its com- pactness to its being firmly compressed and interwoven, to its being well and accu- rately filled with fluid, (principally blood,) and to the circumstance of its being every where supported, held together, contained, and as it were, closely stowed away in the cells of the cellular substance. In order to obtain a clear notion of the cellular substance, its universality and ap- pearance, just fancy it nossible for an anat- omist, with a finely-pointed instrument to pick away every part of your body which is not cellular substance : what re- mained would be of course cellular sub- stance only, and you would present exact- ly the appearance of a man made of honey- comb or sponge. Butif this spongy re- lique of you were perfectly dried, it would be so light that the sigh of a butterfly in love would be sufficient to scatter it to the four winds of heaven. Notwithstanding it pervades, therefore, the whole body, its actual quantity or weight is exceedingly small. If you doubt the existence of this universal cellular substance, and would like to see it proved by actual experiment on your own person, only let me know,and I will come prepared with a proper instru- ment,and hegin to pick away whenever you please. Only, my dear John, when I have dore picking, I will by no means un- dertake to put you together again. 1 trust you have now a tolerably accurate idea of the ultimate tissus. If you have not, I pray you to refer back and read again ; ané every now and then shut your eyes, and so endeavor to ascertain whether you clearly understand what you just read or not, and by no means proceed to a second sentence before you have fully undesstood the first. y;-N, C. SATUR somewhat tedious or tautological, vou must parcon that too, for Iam extreme- ly anxious thit you should obtain a dis- tinct conception of the nature of the ulti- mate tissue; otherwise I shail: have = lost both my time and labour, and it will be impossible fur you to understand me when I come to speak of diet, the conduct of life as it relates to the preservation of health, the origin of disease, &e. dc. all of which have a direct reference to this ultimate tis- sue. It is besides the most beautiful, the most wonderful, the most important struc- ture in the human fabric, magnificent in its very simplicity, stupendous in its mine uteuess, and it is the secret chamber in which nature conducts all her hidden oper- ations. Hither are brought and dealt with by that subtle and inysterious Operator all the elements necesssry to the production of a Newton, a Milton, a Plato, or a Mon- taigne, a Rabelais, a Democritus; a How- ard, or a Rubespeire ; a Richard the First of England, or a Louis the Eleverth of France; a Napoleon, a Peter, a Lear, a Goneril, a Falstatl; a genius or a dunce; a martyr for religion or a murderer for pelf, a fanatic ora fool. ‘he physical is the father of the moral nan: and it is quite true, ** Quod animi mores lemperamenta sequantur ; and no less true is tiat * Phil osophy has been in the wrong not to des- cend more deeply inty physical man ;— there it iy that the mural inan lies conceal- ed 3 the outward man is only the shell of the man within.” ‘To alter a mau’s moral claracter, you need only alter his physical cundiuon.

Had Richard the First nud been the giaut he was, would he have been the hero he was? Would he have courted danger as he did, alune and single-handed ? = J have said that many virtues depend on this single quality ot cuurage. Richard possessed the ne plus ulira of courage, and he was hivh-minded and genieruus tu a fault. He sought tuaccomplish ali his ends openly, avowedly, and huuurably, Lecause he telt himself able to du so. His bruther Juhn was a coward, and how did he seek to aceumplish his ubjecis ? Why, by every species of luw and cunning villany, nut stopping even at murder.— Had Juhn been physically coustituted as Rich- ard, and Richard as Juha, Juha had been called the liun-hearted, and Richard the craven cow. ard. Again, it may be urged that on the field of battle men not physically strong have frequently performed feats of gratuitous and wncailed-fur daring. But neither will this ubjection bold, for af the time of performing these deeds of valor their physical cunstitutivo is actually altered.— ‘The brain, powerfully excited by the scenes, the trumpet clang, the panoply of war, the martiaj music, the atir, the life, the uproar all around, pours inw the heart a resistless tide, as it were, of nervous energy, and the heart, obedient to the impulse, propels ihe bleod in a stream of triple furce alung the arteries, vatil every otgan of the body isin a state of the highest excitement, swollen and distended with the living current. ‘Thus for a time the weak becume actually , and hence these instances of courage wire pee seme thing scours in anger.

Wag not the Roman mad who, in order to show bis enemy how lutle he cared for his threats of puaishment, thrust Ins own hand into the fire and held it there till a8 was consu:ned? Cuodens, the last king of Athens, allowed himself purposely to be killed by one of his enemies,the Hera- clidg, because the oracle had declared that the victazy should be won by that nation whose kieg should be slain ia battle. Co- dros, theretore was a patriot. Had bedone the same thing from sadnese of heart, weari- ness of the world, or simply to please him- self; he would have been a suicide and a inacman. The moral qualities are therefore, at least to a great extent, the offspring of physical structure. | know that moral causes may, and olten do, produce physical disease: but this does not weaken the argument, for a child may destroy its parent, ‘The quali- hes of the mind, also, may be moditied, improved, trained, and properly directed by religion and education. But so, alsa, may the child of one parent be nurtured and &d- ucated by another, Que of the most familiar instances of the influence of physical couformation on mor- al character isto be found in the fact, that all the most courageous and ferocious ani- mals have a heart remarkably large and streng in proportion to their size, while the weak and timid have hearts propurtionally small. It 13 as impossible for an animal with a small flabby heart tobe bold and strong as tor two and two to equal five. I am glad to perceive, by so:me late pub- livations, that the truth of this doctrine 1s beginning to be admitted, and J trust it will not be long before parents can be made to understand that the only certain: method of assuring to children a vigorous and healthy portunity of acquiring a vigorous and healthy body. Let then be assured, too, that those who begin by cramming a childs memory (for judgmentigs out of the ques- on) wih a quantity of bad French and worse Latin, together with the terms and pteblems of the obstruce sciences, which, after all, they can only learn to re- peat as the parrot does, by rote without un- derstanding; let them, [ say, be assured that those who thus begin, by seeking to make a child so very, very wise, will end, in all human probability, by making him a fool. I have been seduced by this bewitching sub- turn to the arteries and veins, ‘The arteries rainifying in every direction, like the branches of the tree fro:n their com- mon root in the heart, and having shot their minute and hair-like terminations into every part of the body. so that you cannot anseit the pot of the finest needle without wounding one or more of thein ‘hese hatr- like veins (which are merely a continuation of hair-like arteries with an alteration in the structure of their coats) soon begin to unite two into one,to, form larger veins. ‘These larger veins again presently unttetwo or more into one, to form larger still; and so on, un- til all the verns of the body have united to- gether, and so formed two very large ones which empty themselves into the beat. One of the grand distinctions then between veins and arteries 1s,that while the arteries arising diminished in sizeuntil they havereached, & distributed their blood to the ultimate ts sue,the viens arising from the ultimate tissue are constanily becoming diminished in num- bers and increased in size, until they have reached and carried their blood fo the heart, Another general distinction between ar- teries and veins 18, that arteries possess con- stractility. ‘Thatis, they possess the power of constracting upon (and so propelling) their blood, and then of recovering their size, and contracting again; and so on. This alternate contraction and expansion consis tutes the pulse. The veins are simply and but shghtly elastic. A sunply elastic body can only contract after having been previ- ously expanded. The arteries can con- tract without previous expansion. This power they owe to what 1s called constrat- tility. ‘T'he veins, therefore, have no pulse, and consequently little or no power to pro- pel their blood. The blood in the veins is driven on by various extrinsic circumstances, such as the cuntraction of muscles asownd | them, the pulsation of arteries’ in their neigtborhood, @ dependent position, ke. The veins, therefore, have valves which, when the blood has bees squeezed onward towards the heart by the adventitious caus- €3 just mentioned, prevent its regurgitation of gravitation beck ward. J have said that there is scarcely sny point jn the body which is act occupied by vessels and nerves. ft follows, therefore, that there 1s scarcely any point of 1 which does not consist of veseelg and nerves. And this is true. Whenyou look st a piece of red raw ficsh, that which appears to you a solid mass, is, in fact, little else thane wonderful and ; matted together. The perts are the nervous threads, a little cellular sub- ings, wild immaginings, and musing moodi- furious the muscular. § gd. ire peat, vessels—munote tubes, head, every one of which you, of course, kaow 1s_ hollow, Rayseh’s opinica is very high authority, which eaabled hum to carry the art of in- Jecting minute vessels to a degree-of nicety which has never since been equaled, nor even approached. But he died, and, like e miser, refused to divulge his secret, though large sums of money were offered hun. Il any man deserved to have confession ex- torted from him by the rack, it was Ruysch, What I have said of the red raw flesh as also true of the bones —especially of young animals, For the internal structure of the bones ts honey-combed, and highly spongorl, and their cells every where are filled with vessels and nerves. From all this there re- sults another consequence, which is: this: that nearly the whole of the body consist- tng of tubes, and these tubes being filled with fluid, a very urge proportion of the whole body must consist of fluid. This. foo, is true, If you take a piece of human muscle (that is, what you call, in meat, the lean part) of the size and thickness of an ordinary beef steak, and diy it perfectly, it will becorne no thicker than a sheet of pa- per. Ja fact, fully five-sixths of the body are fluid. The next large proportion con- sists of the solid matter composing the nerves and the coats of vessels.

Gentlemen ever that the Senate of the United States, ra the act of inserting upon their journal, a disapproval of the removal of the public de- “posites, factiously, and with their eves open, ‘and for party purposes, intentionally viola- ted the constitution which they were sworn to support, and ibus bre guilty of the moral crime of perjury. And yet then gome gen- tlemen wish ta expunge from the journal the record of the act. What a strong exhi- bition of inconsistency do we here perceive. Perpetrators of crime. usually burn gwith much auxieiy tu blot from existence every memorial of their guilt. [tis the prosecu- tor who sedulously strives to give the proof an enduing existence. Here the rule is reversed. These who charge the Senate with crime, are struggling to annihilate the ooly authentic evidence of the fact, while the accnsed themselves, are exerting every nerve tu preserve the disgraceful mouument! Sir, if they are gnilty; leave to posterity the power of condemning thein from their own mouths. Expunge the act from the journals, and believe me, future ayes will be slow to believe that the Senate could be guilty of so vile a prostitution of their coustituiioual 4 functions. But gentleinen aay the resolution was un- constitutions! Be nso. Thatis the most cogent reason why at should remain upon the journal, Letit remain there as aa in- -. delible blot upen (be memory of our polit- cal Opponents. Who proposed to expunge?

To drop the figure, from being a decided enemy of Jackson, we behold hin Jack- son’s Secretary of State, and Gnd time a- mid the duties of his Office, to plot, and effect the ruin of John C. Calhoun, to do which, he travels or sends emmuisaries to Georgia, to avail himself of the knowledge and skill of William U1. Crawford. But aot content with this, the arch magician, follow- ing the lead of his great prototype, and re- solved, to suffer no: rival near. the throne, commences his courtly intrigue with the la- dies. ‘he result is soon known; Jackson 1s seduced from his friends, the cabinet 1s dissolved, and some of the most distinguish- ed men in the country wither under the ma- Ingnant influence of his dark,insiduous coun- ceils. He, good Democrat that he is, in the pure love he bears to peace,resigns,& retires to Enylandan honorable & profitable employ ment. —But the Senate did thetr duty, and effected fromthe Diplomatic cprps this adept at diseimulation, this palace plotter and courtly intriguer, and brought hin home to receive rewatds from his regency associates. Now let the expunging -press es begin, elevate our hero, of Kinderhook tothe Presidency, and we shall next hear of a proposal to expunge the Senate’s vote refusing to assent to his nomination to Eng land, and then to expunge. whatever is dis agreeable, and the Senate’s Journal wilt be- come what tyrants would desire it:a regis- try of idicts and cxecutive commands. But Gen’l Jackson, whose wishes have ever been pratified in Tennessee, desires Van Buren to be Vice President.

He took occasion to manifest it in the most public strike out, as Grundy, King, White, even his pretenced friend, Mr. Benton, and all the rest of the Senators, save seven.—Now sir, Judge White is in good company—he ia with the Simon pures. Just at this junc- ture, rumor began to give out that Judge White was to be a candidate for the Presiden- cy. Before that, it was enough to satisfy the consciences of yentlemen, the then Svaoate would repeal, reverse, rescind, what the forwer Senate bad done condemnatory of Gen. Jackson’s conduct relative to the deposites. But as soon as Judge White’s name was announced as a candidate for the Presidency, a battery of adulation and wheedling was opened from all the Van Buren presses throughout the land, in order to praise the Judge off the field. When that failed, something else must be done. A couucil is ealled, of which, sir, 7 will not say, nor will | intimate that any of the Ten- nessee detegstion was in it—Mr. Van Bu- reo, Mr. Benton kuows.—The plan is laid, Judge White is. committed, he kas consci- entious scruples about Expunging from the recorda of the country what the Constitu- tion commands to be kept, the proceedings of. the Senate, & what he had swornto keep.
